“I want to live. I have to. My babies need me.”
These are the words that have been echoing in my head every day since I became a mother. They are the words that have given me the strength and determination to overcome any obstacle that comes my way. As a mother, my love for my children knows no bounds, and it is this love that has become my driving force to keep going, no matter how tough life may get.
Becoming a mother is a life-changing experience. It is a rollercoaster of emotions, from the overwhelming joy of holding your baby for the first time to the endless sleepless nights and challenges of raising a child. But through it all, one thing remains constant – the love for our children. It is a love that is unconditional and unbreakable, and it is what keeps us going, even in the most difficult of times.
I remember the day I found out I was pregnant with my first child. It was a mixture of excitement and fear. I was excited to embark on this new journey of motherhood, but at the same time, I was afraid. Afraid of the responsibilities that come with being a mother, afraid of not being able to handle it all, and most of all, afraid of not being good enough for my child. But as soon as I held my baby in my arms, all those fears disappeared, and I knew that I would do anything and everything to give my child the best life possible.
As my children grew, so did my love for them. Every milestone they reached, every giggle, every hug, and every “I love you, Mommy” made my heart swell with love and pride. But along with the joys of motherhood, there were also challenges. From sleepless nights to tantrums, from juggling work and home life to dealing with my own emotions, being a mother is not an easy task. But every time I felt overwhelmed, I would look at my children, and I knew that I had to keep going. They needed me, and I needed them.
It is often said that a mother’s love knows no boundaries, and I couldn’t agree more. I have seen mothers sacrifice their own needs and wants for the sake of their children. I have seen mothers work multiple jobs to provide for their families. I have seen mothers fight tirelessly for their children’s rights. And I have seen mothers battle life-threatening illnesses with the determination to live for their children. This is the power of a mother’s love – it knows no limits, and it is what keeps us going, even when we feel like giving up.
I have had my fair share of struggles as a mother. From postpartum depression to financial difficulties, there were times when I felt like I couldn’t go on. But every time I looked at my children, I knew that I had to keep fighting. They gave me a reason to live, to be strong, and to never give up. They are my motivation, my inspiration, and my everything.
As a mother, I have learned that the most important thing is to be present for our children. To be there for them when they need us, to listen to them, to support them, and to love them unconditionally. It is not about being a perfect mother, but about being a present and loving one. And that is what I strive to be every day.
My children have taught me the true meaning of love, selflessness, and resilience. They have shown me strength I never knew I had and have pushed me to be the best version of myself. They have given me a purpose in life, and for that, I am eternally grateful.
So when I say, “I want to live. I have to. My babies need me,” it is not just a statement. It is a reminder to myself that I am a mother, and I have a responsibility to my children. It is a reminder that my love for them is what gives me the strength to keep going, even when life gets tough. And it is a reminder that being a mother is the greatest blessing and the most challenging yet rewarding job in the world.
To all the mothers out there, I want to tell you that you are doing an amazing job. Your love for your children is what makes you a superhero, and your children are lucky to have you as their mother. So on those days when you feel like giving up,
