You Show Me That Life Is Beautiful – About Life With Children
Life with children is a mixture of many shapes and colors. But the ones that parents like best are those that are reflected in their children’s mischievous facial expressions. The music in their smiles, the curls in their hair, and their laughter that fills everyone’s senses with joy and hope. Because life is better with a child by your side…
José Saramago has said that a child is someone we have borrowed as a crash course in how to love someone more than yourself.
He also explained that getting actions requires as much courage as having children. Every day we have to face the uncertainty of whether we are doing this right, or if we are doing something small that can harm such a precious and beloved being.
It is as if love and fear have always been two sides of the same coin. Hope and doubt always go hand in hand, and this is something we experience intensely when a child grows up. However, we must be clear that this is a healthy concern.
We must not forget that fear is genetically embedded in our brains for a very specific reason: to cope with our survival, to be able to anticipate risks and thus ensure the well-being of our own and our families.
Worry is natural when you know what is the most beautiful thing in the world. We at Being a Mother invite you to reflect on this treasure that your whole day revolves around.
You are my “here and now”, you give more meaning to my life
It is really popular today to read blogs written by famous people (actors, artists, journalists…) where they talk about motherhood, their daily adventures, and unique tips.
There is no shortage of articles that, without pretense, speak of how difficult this stage is. How much they miss the time when, free from responsibilities, they could do whatever they wanted with their time. Sleep as much as they wanted, and do things spontaneously without being dependent on anyone else.
- When we think of these comments, we notice that there are always those who draw a line between the past and the present. Between the time “with friends” and this new time “with children”. In the same way, we can draw a line between when we were single, and today when we are in a stable relationship.
- It is not about reflecting on which stage was better or worse. But rather what every moment in life has given us.
- We must understand that life is a series of moments that we must learn from in order to continue to grow and mature. We have to take advantage of everything we encounter along the way to get better all the time.
At the same time, we understand that a child marks a fresh start in our life cycle. At that moment, every man and woman must restart, re-evaluate, and improve themselves. Try to bring out his best, most noble, trustworthy, and honorable self.
Far from looking back on the past and missing yesterday’s freedom, mature people will focus entirely on the “here and now”. Where every word, every embrace, and every action is important.
Life with children – it will always be beautiful with you by my side
Your child may be the long-awaited gift of your life. Or your little one might come unexpectedly. When you have not planned for it, and in the most difficult time. Yet these uncertainties have now been erased and dissolved in yesterday’s waters. Because you have discovered the best that could happen to the beautiful island that is your present. You’ve never been so happy.
Children come into our arms in different ways. Sometimes in the company of the world’s best partner, and sometimes you have to dive into this adventure alone. But, whatever it is, you have realized that life has now taken on a different color. Now everything is more intense, noisy, fun, and sometimes chaotic…
At the same time, everything is extremely volatile. Time goes by so fast and your baby grows every second. This sometimes fills you with new fears, worries and worries…
Let us once again remember the words of José Saramago:
