To All the Lovely Mothers


I am dreaming of you every night, touching your gentle hands, hugging you tight and feeling you deeply,

You are here in the foggy harbor of my dreams, sitting with eyes in which the blue of the sky has settled in, and I wish the time would not pass at all.


Now I am looking at your face wrinkles that have deepened like stunning valleys of life, as wide as your endless heart.
Looking at your shiny eyes and gray hairs like mother earth with blue sky and strong rocks just remind me how I can fearless and safe with you

And I hold your hands in mine like a temple which all my childhood dreams started over there.

I shrink and crawl on your belly, feeling your body and you feed me again with all love and care of your soul.

You whisper and whisper, full of sad lullabies and regardless of all your sufferings, I calm down in your arms. fall into a deep sleep,
You are here even when you are not, because you have been with me from the beginning, even when I have not been in the world.

My beautiful Mother you cannot escape of my dreams.

Words cannot express the gratitude that you deserve for all that you have done for me.
After all these years which I am full-grown, I wish to leave myself on your arms like a bird nesting in the branches of an old generous tree. Then you will be my mother again and I’ll forget all my sorrows.

Today is not just your day, it is the day of all the giving souls in the world.
Like you, they have never given up on being alive and green.
You, will remain immortal in my soul and my world forever, because motherhood has spread along the universe from your kind heart to the all creatures that carry your love from one generation to the others
We become mothers and fathers, hold the everlasting flame of your eternal love like an unforgettable fire to the end of the world.

❤❤❤

Learning to say “No” to additional or unimportant requests will help to reduce your level of , and may also help you develop more .
To learn to say “No”, you need to understand why you find it difficult. Many people find it hard to say “No” because they want to help and are trying to be nice and to be liked.

“I am sorry but I can’t commit to this as I have other priorities at the moment.”
“Now is not a good time as I’m in the middle of something. Why don’t you ask me again at….?”
“I’d love to do this, but …”

The four A's - Avoid, Alter, Adapt & Accept
1-
It’s not healthy to avoid a stressful situation that needs to be addressed, but you may be surprised by the number of stressors in your life that you can eliminate.

Learn how to say "no." Know your limits and stick to them. Whether in your personal or professional life, taking on more than you can handle is a surefire recipe for stress. Distinguish between the "shoulds" and the "musts" and, when possible, say "no" to taking on too much.

Avoid people who stress you out. If someone consistently causes stress in your life, limit the amount of time you spend with that person or end the relationship.

Take control of your environment. If the evening news makes you , turn off the TV. If makes you tense, take a longer but less-traveled route. If going to the market is an unpleasant chore do your grocery shopping online.

Pare down your to-do list. your schedule, responsibilities, and daily tasks. If you’ve got too much on your plate, drop tasks that aren’t truly necessary to the bottom of the list or eliminate them entirely.
