THE JOY OF MOTHERHOOD “A SINGLE GALS PERSPECTIVE

Those of the Judaeo-Christian persuasion, have no doubt stumbled upon the scriptural passage (1 Tim. 2: 15) that hints on the role of Motherhood. Paul says of women, “Notwithstanding, she shall be saved in childbearing…” I currently do not have any children, so I guess the jury is still out. I have had the priviledge to work with children for most my life in the capacity of baby-sitter, Nanny and most recently as a teen counselor.

I would not trade these experiences for anything. That said I am not quite sure that I am ready to rear my own children. The joy of motherhood for me has been the fact that at the end of the day when I was done with the children, I could give them back.

One of the most touching and endearing quotes on motherhood that I have come across were written by Danielle Bean. Ms. Bean says, “Motherhood is a kind of crucifixion, a dying to self. From suffering and death come Resurrection. And from the struggles of motherhood joy, beauty and new life emerge.”

THE OTHER MOM!

Many a writer has explored the issue of Working Moms vs. Work/Stay-At-Home-Moms! It seems very simple to me; live and let live. Want to work? Work! Want to stay home? Stay home!

Gwendolen Gross, author of The Other Mother, shares her thoughts saying, “I wrote this novel with one narrator who is a stay-at-home mom and the other a working mom to accomplish something I thought non-fiction couldn’t. What I wanted was to be able to stand in shoes of both moms, in hopes of illustrating how we judge each other unnecessarily, and understanding, myself, how important it is to respect other people’s methods and choices even if they don’t match my own.”

THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE!

I don’t know about you, but I think if I had to spend my days listening to Stars Wars according to a 3 yr. old or A Korean Kid sings “Hey Jude,” what bliss! I know better, being a mother is a huge task, made sweeter by the moments such as these; that are the exceptions!

I have great admiration for Oprah Winfrey. I am particularly pleased with the shows that she does that focus on motherhood, the good, the bad and the ugly! I am including a snippet of one of these shows, that has been controversial at best! MOTHERHOOD MYTHS can you relate?

The experience of motherhood varies greatly depending upon location. The organization Save the Children has ranked the countries of the world, and found that Scandinavian countries are the best places to be a mother, whereas countries in sub-Saharan Africa are the worst.[3] OK TIME OUT! I was raised in Africa…hmm I do not know what criteria we are using here to judge. However, my mother was swell and I turned very well if I should say so myself!

Being a mother is no easy task. I don’t know why, but moms seem to have to teach the same things over and over again…I guess we are just not quick on the uptake. I bow in the presence of greatness!

MOMSENSE-The Mom Song

MOMSENSE

As a single woman, knowing that one day I will join the ranks of mom, I know a little of the struggle women face. Some days I am convinced that I am going to be a homemaker and Stay/Work-At-Home-Mom! Other days independence hits with a vengeance and I cannot stomach the thought of changing diapers, wiping boggies and jungle gym! Arrgh! How hard it is for those actually wrestling with these issues I shudder to think!

I love my mummy. I am grateful that she gave up everything so that I could be! I thank her for believing in me. I thank your for choosing to be a mother!
