Maternity

“To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.” 
― Arundhati RoyThe Cost of Living

Some days I just want to lie under open skies and embrace a little baby. It just gives utter joy to watch kids grow and make them learn and make them eat. Sometimes I'm so full of maternal feelings  that it overwhelms me. Some people who guard traditions shan't forget that a mother and her little baby are inseparable even after when, that child has gone hidden into the shadow of hidden maternity.
