What your children are to you

What a funny title. Who does not know what our children are to us. But I thought of writing this after hearing and reading so much about the honor killing by parents; not only parents but children assassinating their parents too. In this so called world of modernization every thing is possible, still I believe in human relationships. There are few associations that matter a lot. First are your parents who teach you to walk, second are your siblings with whom you grow and learn how to share, third are your teachers who show you the path of life, fourth is your life partner who provides you the platform to share all feelings and your kids in whom you see your own shadow and for whom you have the desire to live. I remember the day when first time my pregnancy test was positive. Both of us were thrilled but in the first trimester it ended up into a miscarriage. I could not bear the shock for at least six months. Within a year I was again pregnant and we both crossed our fingers till our daughter was born: small little princess. Her first touch to me was awesome. Her first smile was millions of stars in the sky. Her cries use to make me restless and the first word she uttered is the best melody I have ever heard. I have a strong belief that every mother feels the same. Motherhood is the greatest boon which God has gifted to the women. Without motherhood no woman is complete. If you are blessed with a daughter you are lucky as they understand you the best. They provide you the desire, hope and dreams. How can one finish the dreams on the name of honor killing?

If we are unable to provide what our children need they will find someone who thinks alike and follows the journey with their steps. Someone who breathes with them and understands the secret of their soul. At this stage we argue that our children do not listen to us. It is difficult to say what is right and what is wrong as I do not have any answer except finishing this strange title with a word that all relations are too complex to understand.
