I am working #mother,
I am blessed with two,
Cute small #kids,
When I am at work,
My heart gets stuck in kids,
I always think I should have done this/that,
For my elder/younger kids,
When I am at work I always think,
I should have taught that,
particular subject #concept,
To my students this particular way unique,
I sometimes do self-talk,
Dear me! Please accept this tough mother’s way of life,
Please be #kind to yourself,
Stop beating yourself up,
Accept that you are a working mother,
And keep walking on waves of #nonlinear life,
With determination and
Confidence.
Oh! working mother,
The guilt you are feeling is normal,
And nothing new,
It will remain with you forever,
Children at home and persons at work front,
Do not even know the word ” mother’s guilt”
Please substitute the same with work/life #balance,
And enjoy some sweet moments for yourself also,
I wish children at home and persons at work front,
Could realize mother’s guilt,
So that I could partially get #relieved,
From heavy emotional #baggage of ”mother’s guilt.”
Work-life balance is a big tool,
In the hands of a working mother,
Which saves working mothers
from mother's guilt.
Mothers! please take out some time,
From your busy #schedule,
Help yourself and make yourself,
Strong and beautiful.
Mothers please work on your emotional #quotient,
And become courageous and brave,
Make your daughter,
And daughter-in-law,
Courageous and free from guilt.
