Mother's Day
Mothers make the home. No one can imagine a home without her presence. Yes ,this is the Day to honour her, give her tribute, and thank her profusely. She is a life giver, a reminder of our union and communion with God.
Life is full of contradictions: Man the breadwinner and woman the home maker. Materialism spurred up young women to work and increase the family income. The traditional role of being at home to raise kids and house- keeping changed, blending family and work. The trend is now blowing a full circle to traditional roles. Women now have challenging opportunities to compete with men staying right at home. Yes the internet is changing the whole concept of work. More women today prefer to stay at home with kids. The present generation of women, I think, do not view the difficulties of blending work and raising families as a collective social problem. They have the option of working right from their homes which gives them great independence, flexibility, and added income. They are the new Mompreuners!
Happy Mother's Day
