An A-B-C letter to my daughter on Women's Day
Dear Daughter,
You may not understand this now, but when you enter your teens and move forward in life, Hold this A-B-C letter close to your heart. An A-B-C mantra to be the Woman of the future...Here Goes :
A for Alert,Active and Adventurous, Be All these adjectives and make me proud
B for Breasts and Breastfeeding....As a Woman and A Mom, Give them great importance always
C for COMPARISON, NEVER do this ! There will always be some woman, your friend, your sisters or in in-laws, who will have everything that YOU dont have...Never Say, 'Oh she's Lucky she can get up anytime, she has maids for cooking, oH ! She doesnt have a job, or she has her mother to help her".. STOP ! Never Compare...Some Women are BLessed, because NOTHING in this world comes for free, NOT EVEN HAPPINESS. It is their genuine GOOD deeds, they did in this life or Past life that GOD has been KIND to them..So, COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS ONLY...not others blessings.

My dearest daughter, Although you are very young to understand this A-B-C letter, at 10 you may think it's a poem, at 20 it May sound preachy, at 30 a life lesson, at 40 you will tell this to your kids and at 50 you will nod your head to every line.. But I want you to know I love you regardless of what you do in your life and I'll be your rock whenever you need me
Your mamma.. Always :)
