Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mothers out there, from the generations before us who worked in farm fields with their babies wrapped around their backs to the mothers of our generation who make sacrifices every day to be everything to everyone!
As Maxim Gorky once said, “Only mothers can think of the future because they give birth to it in their children.” Mothers understand that any future without love, care, and compassion would be futile, which is why they begin with those values.
Over the years, I have learned that there is no single definition of the “best mom.” Each of us has a collection of moments and events from our lives that define the “best mom” to us. I enjoy listening to stories of other moms and finding valuable lessons in them. Sharing those “best mom” stories provide much-needed inspiration for what is truly meaningful in a world driven by self-serving ideals and greed. So don’t hold back; share your favorite mom moment, recognize her sacrifices, and celebrate her life this weekend.
No matter what you have planned for Mother’s Day celebrations, you will always be her greatest gift. Find a quiet place and take a few minutes to sit with her. Look deep into her eyes and remind her of a special moment you shared many years ago. Recall the specifics, what she taught you then, and how that moment shaped you forever. Thank her for making you a better person today. I promise you – she will never get tired of receiving this gift.
See you next week!
– Burak Sarac, Team Lead
