JUST A THOUGHT - IN CELEBRATION OF MOTHERS' AND FATHER'S' DAY. THE END!




And yet, though it is the case that, when considered on the macro level, there is much which is questionable.  

It is not the bigger things in life and living which normally predicate the relationship between a daughter or son and their mothers and fathers. 

It is the smaller, the more personal, the touching and feeling things. 

It is things such as a mother and father being bonded to their sons and daughters.  

And establishing and nurturing a loving and/or loyal relationship between them. 



It is about parents having been proactive towards and in their care of their young impressionable and malleable offspring.  

And creating and nurturing long lasting moments and times of 'happy memories.'  

Of 'doing things together', 'having fun together', and giving rise to a lasting 'feeling of closeness, mutual protectiveness towards' each other.'

A relationship which has resulted in parents and their children making a high level of emotional and psychological investment in each other.  

To the extent that each become somewhat 'self-alienated', to the extent that they have invested of themselves, in the other. In Mum and in Dad. In my Son and/or my Daughter.

Being given the opportunity to and learning from Mum and Dad, oftentimes imperceptibly so.  

Are just some of the things for which Sons and Daughters give thanks and praises to them, on Mothers' Day and Fathers' Day, but, also on other days as well. 



Indeed, it is the case that many Sons and Daughters display their love and their thanks and appreciation to their Mums and Dads. 

More on the days which have not been specifically set aside for them to do so. 

Because, just as how a young child might have had to take on a disproportionate responsibility for the family's economic well-being.  

Depending on the country, culture and level of social, economic and political advancement of their society, at a very young age. 




So, should it not be taken for granted any or all parents, mums and dads, are saints, and therefore earn having their 'sanctified' days of adoration.

That, however, should not stop sons and daughters giving Mums and Dads thanks and praises.  

As every moment we spend making others and/or ourselves happy and/or infused with humility. 

Are moments 'robs' us of the opportunity of having unhappy and selfish moments
