When was the last time you hugged your parents.....

They enjoy every living moment of our lives like nothing else.They love us like no one else.
Yet,at times we fail to realise the way they express their love for us.
Not all parents can afford the same lifestyle or education,but they put all that they have,to do the best they can..only for us.Not all parents are expressive enough to hug or appreciate their child all the time,but they surely do things in their own little way to love us.
Some mothers spend every waking moment with their child while some are forever busy with household or office  work and spend whatever time they get ,with their children after the chores. They cook your favourite food and eat it even if they dont like.They watch your favourite cartoon because you like watching it.
And you ignore "silly sacrifices" of your mom ,when she chose to buy you a new shoe and dress you in new clothes from head to toe and preferred to wear an old saree herself.When they do anything for us ,we think its their duty! I am sorry to say everyone comes and goes alone from this world.There is no duty unless ther is love and compassion.They sacrifice for us because they chose to do so.Come to think of it..they could have chosen otherwise.Sometimes,we hardly take a few minutes to throw them out of our lives.(I wonder what it would be like to be thrown in a dustbin the day we were born...After all that also happens in the same world we live in!)
Yet, none of us would exchange our parents with anyone.That is the reason life was designed in a way that we can choose our friend/life partner but God chooses our parents.We need to understand why it is so designed.Your parents are the best that you deserve in life.And hence,God choses them for you.Do not ever fail to do your best for them.If we cant reverse a mistake,at least we can apologise.For a parent,even if a child understands the mistake ,its enough.

 And you get all of this the day you know you are going to become a parent. Life comes full circle, as your child grows. The challenges of parenting that it throws remind you of how you hated your mom or dad for a particular thing or how much you loved them for the way they behaved in a certain situation.
 Yet ,at times,some of us take them for granted.Or we feel they haven't done enough for us,giving us a right to not respect them enough. None of us have the right to do so. You acknowledge or you dont,
your Parents would never curse you.But why some of us fail to take care of them?For what on earth can we let our parents feel they aren't loved?Why on earth there is surge in the aged people in old age homes?For a job?For the comfort of a life partner?For different lifestyles?I strongly believe everything can be sorted.
 When was the last time you hugged them or asked them if they were alright?Can't remember?
Then do it within a minute of reading this.Break the Ice.Ease out.Thats your mom ,your Dad.They cant ever stop loving you.And dont cheat yourself by loving them lesser than anyone else.Believe me,If you think only only you are the Ideal daughter or son and they aren't the best Parents,Life will make sure you have an ideal son or daughter like yourself.
 Mummy and Papa,wherever you are,I am becuase you Are.
