They are #Onereasontosucceed
Children are gifts entrusted to us to nurture and protect. They are treasures whose happiness we are directly responsible for , being their first point of contact with the world. It is our responsibilities to bring them up in the ways of the world and to make sure they have a soft landing. Every action we take, in some way, has an effect on them.
As infants, children demand a lot of care and attention. They will scream and rave, take away our sleep and almost make us question our sanities. Even when they have reached a certain level of maturity as teenagers, they still need love and attention - even though they pretend to resent it. Teenagers will question our authority, we might even feel like putting them up sale on the black market sometimes.
In the end though, the result will be worth the effort because children are blessings personified. There are few things that can compare with the joy of a mother who sees a smile on the face of her satisfied infant child. Or even with the pride of a father when the child first utters the magic word "dada". Parents share vicariously in the joys and achievements of their children when they are successful; glorying in the fact that they succeeded in raising someone who could impact the society positively.
Whether you have children now, or you are an aspiring parent, always ask yourself if your offspring will be proud of your present actions. When the cares of life weigh you down, and you feel you can no longer carry on, think of the smiles that will leave their faces if you don't succeed. Let their smiles and happiness be your source of strength and belief.
Remember, they are depending on you and for them you must have #onereasontosucceed .
