Happy Mother's Day
2021: Mother is the first teacher and friend of her child. She is the
one who is endowed with all the power. No creature in this world can be as
powerful as a mother!! She goes through unimaginable pain to give us the gift
of life and never falters. She is the most powerful epitome of love, sacrifices
and care.
No
one can ever replace her at any cost. “Youth fades; love droops, the leaves of
friendship fall; a mother's secret hope outlives them all,” a famous quote by
Oliver Wendell Holmes sums up the eternal significance of a mother.
A mother's efforts should be
recognised and appreciated every day, even when it is not Mother's Day.
