The Beauty of Parenthood

A Parent

A parent is a lamp in darkness that lightens the paths of the child. A shepherd of the lost, a shelter to run to, an escape place which never fails to keep you warm.

A hand that feeds you, caresses your worry lines.

A parent, a teacher; a parent, a protector; a parent, a provider; a parent, an all in one package.

Being A Parent

Being a parent is the ability to create and train better representatives of a cause quite meticulously.

Parenting is quite tedious, in fact it is an eternal work load, a job that knows no limit. One you really need a lot of patience for.

Being a parent can never be overestimated, you are a like a world to your kids. They depend on you for life, guidance and protection.

Being a parent is a blessing, one that could become a curse with a snap of a finger. It is a pleasure for humanity, one that is never taught but understood with experience.

Being a parent is a responsibility that is carried with so much love.

Being a parent is a responsibility that is best carried with care and without boundaries. A beautiful eternal burden, one that can never be thrown out once it perch.

A right of all living things but never enforced.

A choice that should never be handled with levity.

Sometimes as a result of a mistake or action not thought through but a means of growth all the same.

Being a parent builds relationships that can never be denied it’s connections with the whole being.

A parent is a hand that reaches out to you in times of pains and moments of joy.

There are no set of rules, paperwork, technical know-how or instruction guide to prepare one to become a parent, it is a biological process that is just adopted. One that you need to learn yet no basic guide.

Most experiences curb our lives and how we see life. It sharpens our mind and gives our thoughts perceptions of its own. Then we begin to measure the kind of life we’ve led with the amounts of experiences we have been able to gather. Since we learn from experiences either ours or that of others, we tend to train ourselves in such a way that we don’t have to relieve those experiences again.

They don’t seem to care and this makes them fall victim of a continuous lifestyle or go through their mistakes again. When we don’t see the need to learn or pay attention to experiences, we tend t...

Apology: A swarmed mind

Is apology ever enough? Does it really change things? Does it soothe the soul? Does it make the heart lighter? THOUGHTS ON APOLOGY Apology is usually used to appease an offended heart. It could be in form of actions or words. ‘I am sorry’ is the phrase mostly used to apologize after committing an offense.
