Have you ever searched for a love that is so pure and unconditional? The type of love that transcends all boundaries. The powerful wave which washes away the sorrows of life. The beam of light which penetrates the darkness and the glimmer of hope during miserable times. However, it is time for you to stop searching for it. The sweet scent of that love permeates all around you. Indeed, it is from the one who brought you into this world.

Yes, it's your mom. The one who painstakingly carried you for nine months but the pain drew a blank when you were born. Mother's love, that is unalloyed, unconditional and blooming. All love begins and ends there. It's like nothing else in the world, knows no law, no pity. Tying her family with the knots of love. She is the wall against all dangers, the light of love. Angels God sent to us. Her love endures all. This is the purest form of love, the twinkle of hope and warmth.

She spent sleepless nights with you solely for your comfort and solace. She burned away all of her desires to light up your life. Her gentle yet strong presence was enough to fill us with joy and warmth. Do you still find it the same way? Great if you do! Such organic love must not be lost in the wilderness. Hold on to it like your last string of hope because that love is irreplaceable and therefore must be cherished and celebrated at all costs. :)
