Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother



Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother

They love us unconditionally, they watch over us untiringly, protecting and preserving  us of all the harm. We are because of them. Our success is because of their numerous selfless sacrifices. They hold our hands when we tumble. They Show us the right path.

“OUR PARENTS”

What a precious bond we share with them. They are our guiding lamp. The strong  pillars of our life.

But…….

"Why & How this bond shakes with time when we are growing up"
"Why we distance from them when they need us the most"
"How our priorities change when their‘s remained only their children throughout the time"
Why we stop respecting them?

Profession, career, ambitions, personal life, nuclear families gain supremacy all over us.
Why we cannot hold their hand, gain from their wisdom and lead the journey of life together. Blessings of parents are like the fresh rays of sun, soothing our souls is their warm hug.

I belong to a very humble background. My parents being very hardworking to the core.
I have seen them struggling the waves of hardship. Sharing all they have equally amongst their kids (Three of us). With all their affection and care they have given us sensibilities.

I am married now, residing in same city where my parents live. I make it a point to pay them my visit at least ones a week, sharing their stories, listening to their tales, having meal with them. Kissing, hugging and loving them.  Believe me it’s all that they need, their blessings & smiling faces is all that  I need. They are my roots,  I derive all my strength from them.

Ego kills any relationship. We should love, care, respect and spend as much time as possible with our parents.
Cherish this bond for lifetime, ones gone will never come back. 

(A Short poem thanking The Almighty for my beautiful parents)

Thank You Lord for these blessings

Life without them would be depressing



Thank You Lord for this soothing shelter

For without them life is forever in Swelter


Lord, grant me strength, Grant me wisdom

So I could walk the path of life in their light



Grant me Humility, Grant me Tranquility

So I forever “Honor my father & my Mother”
