My thoughts on Mother's Day

I alway's wondered why we do need a Mother's Day. Shouldn't we show our appreciation for our Mom (and Dad) all year around ?

Isn't it true that we are all so busy, that we sometimes forget to appreciate those around us ? Do we really need an official Mother's Day as a reason to slow down and say : Thank you ?

With that thought I would like to share some beautiful quotes from Mother Theresa with you :

-Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for greater developments and greater riches and so on, so that children have very little time for their parents. Parents have very little time for each other, and in the home begins the disruption of peace of the world.

-It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start.

-Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

-Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.

Happy Mother's Day to everyone !
