Mom... Have you ever stopped to think how this little word of only three letters may contain a meaning far beyond than it appears? Moms can't be described in mere words. I could say love, affection, kindness, patience, but that doesn't even get half of what the exact meaning of being a mother is and how it feels.
Most women dream of the day when she will finally be a mother, the day she will see her child taking his/her first steps and speaking their first words... doesn't it sound wonderful? Probably, being a mother is one of the hardest tasks that a person might face in life, because that person must be aware that from the moment they receive their babies, their lives will change overnight and radically. Far above than feeling prepared, a woman must be extremely responsible for their actions and fully aware that she is getting herself into the best mess of her life.
On the other hand, being a mother has its ups and downs. Just as water and fire are opposites that attract, for a mother love and hate, persistence and defeat, patience and explosion also constantly attract, because nothing is as easy as we want it to be.
Personally, as a teenager I can not express exactly what being a mother is, because much of it can only be said when one lives through the experience. But I guess that's the best gift a woman can receive, because giving life to another individual is showing not only to the world but to yourself that you are a woman worthy and prepared to teach the hardest lesson of all: to live. Being a mother is to face the most unstable but wonderful part of life. Being a mother is to give life to a new life, moreover, being a mother is living.
