Mothers may often be misunderstood but it does not mean that they do not know better. My earliest memory of my mother at the

Her role is not only to stay home .In my opinion‚ the woman deserves to pursue a career‚ develop her social contacts and make her own money. The goal of many people in the professional point of view is to make a career. For some it is easy to get there but for some especially women is not

    When I was first asked to give a talk on mothers‚ since it would be mother’s day. I started wondering how Mother’s Day came to be.
