It is neither an article nor a story, but these are my feelings, in which you may not be interested, but I would urge you to continue reading. My relationship with my mom was very critical as any young adult girl would have. I always misunderstood my mom like hell, but was she worth my ignorance and rude tantrums? I will be revealing this story because you are with me in this journey and I feel that you should know what the actual meaning of life is and what exactly mother is. It’s well said that whatever you see has two sides, two people may see same thing, but they analyse and evaluate it differently, because different people have different perceptions. Same thing happened with me too.
I always wanted to live life on my own terms. I tried to do everything, what mom didn’t like. She didn’t like me roaming with those frivolous boys and stupid girls, who always lied to their parents and slept with their colleagues for few bucks to fill their pockets. We did party every night and bunked school and lectures since I grew up. I always tortured and lied to my mom.
I can define my relation with my Mom with a single word, HATE. I hated her because she stopped me from doing everything wrong, yes wrong! She tried to stop me at that time too, when I became a well known doper in my college, I did all this simply because I wanted to hurt her. My mom loved me a lot and I hated her a lot throughout her life! I don’t know why. What was the reason to hate her so much?
It may be because of that childhood memory, which is blurred and still not clear. That memory still haunts me and makes my senses go feeble and blocks my mind. Dad passed away when I was just 3 years old. I was 6 years, when one day I saw my mother going with some other man at night. It was raining heavily and street poured out like well.
I said: “Mom wait, brother is waiting at home and he wants you to be with him, he is not well, he needs you”.
My brother had severe fever and he needed mom. But she didn’t listen, and moved on. My brother died. I blamed mom for that. If she would have stayed and treated my brother with some medicines and called some doctor, then he would have been saved. I loved my brother a lot, he was the only possession left with me.
Days passed by and I still couldn’t find who that man was. I tried to ask, but she turned mute. Mom was not well one day and she suffered from cancer. I called doctor but it was of no use because it was too late. She hid her disease from me since years. At night when she was suffering from heavy bloody vomiting, somehow I felt a strange satisfaction in watching her suffer.
I felt, she is paying price of killing my brother. Now my brother’s soul would get some peace. Suddenly a man came out of the limousine and walked towards my mother; she tried to speak but couldn’t talk because of the blood that totally blocked her mouth. She tried to stop that man as if not to tell anything but the man didn’t listen. He knew my attitude towards my mom. Before my mom could utter anything, she died. The man continued:
“She picked a bud thrown away; many years back from the unknown street of Goa and brought it home. Many people stopped her but she pledged that day that she will turn that bud into a beautiful flower that will make all the scenes of her life beautiful and extraordinary. She knew that her son was ill. She tried to arrange the doctor and medicines, but I came in between, to show her one more bud, which was lying down on the same street.
She came with me and picked up that bud to give her a life, which would be worth living. She did that to save that bud from the paws of those hungry lions that will grind that bud under their feet within no time. You were the earlier bud and now my adopted daughter is the second bud.”
I was taken aback! This is what my mother was; this is what the word mother means! Life didn’t give me a single chance to understand her and when I got the chance, she was no more. There is no time to repent now!

i totally agree with miss/mrs dipti.the only reason this story could be ignored is ignorance of the most important people in on’e lives i.e parents which is next to commiting a heinous crime.now a days worls seems to be infested of so many evils that at least taking care could be sort of a remorse and we shouldn’t let it go off our hands
anubha says June 13, 2008,11:41 am
Title completely correlates with the story as author of the story realizes her fault when there was really no time to repent. Mother-daughter relationship as portrayed here is a shocking reality today. Most of girls hate their mother because they stop them from doing ‘wrong’. But a question rises in the mind that why mother didn’t tell her reality to bring her to right path. She should have tried to cut this communication gap. Most of the problems are due to this only. Had mother talked to her, daughter wouldn’t have been at remorse. But it’s a heart touching story.
khush says June 13, 2008,12:03 pm
@ Anubha,,
Thnks for the comment and the question that has come up in your mind is quite logical, but the thing is there are many answers that requires some maturity to grasp and understand..there is a particular stage to understand cetain things… like, if mother would have told her at that point pf time, then she would have not understood because she was just 6, but when she grew up she didn’t want ask anything because she had that feeling in her heart that mother has killed her brother and she went with someone else that night,,,and she even didn’t want to listen anything..
Children, if not answered and explained or taught at certain stage than they become quite rude, agressive and they will not listen of that person whome they have seen in the situation that they should have not seen….and the situation can be any…..So, this is the reason why mother didn’t tell her daughter and once daughter asked she turned mute because she knew that now she will not understand….it’s too late,,,
thnks
khush says June 13, 2008,12:13 pm
we should not give any space to any type of misunderstanding and must resolve on time.. if we stay far and let the misunderstanding boom then it will turn into an impediment, which will destroy the relationship and later when we confront the reality we are left with nothing but to repent….
PRAMOD says June 13, 2008,12:29 pm
above all we can not under estimate the efforts of all the contestants no doubt they have done a wonderful job but the content of this story was somewhat that made me feel a bit biased towards this story.
khush says June 13, 2008,12:37 pm
@ Promod,
I really wanted to bring this thing infront of everyone, because its not only we who suffer and feel repent at last,,,but think about those parents they become the victim of our misunderstanding and rude behaviour, we forgot each and everything done by them for us…
Nikhil says June 13, 2008,1:21 pm
awesome story ..really heart touching…felt like reading it several times ..it really rocks [:)]
Rajeev Singhal says June 13, 2008,3:55 pm
The story is very touching, hats off to the writer.
This is 1st story which i read here n it made me realise what i was missing.
This site is a gud platform for young writer, like Kushboo, who have immense talent but no stage to perform.
No wonder if the writer can give some master piece if she continues writing like this.
Good Luck.

Khush says June 13, 2008,6:18 pm
@ Apar
Transperancy is very important in any relationship but as I told earlier here, that some things are bound to be told at right time and right place. And mother daughter relationship is like a friend, which needs the fragrance of flower to make it more joyful….
thanks

The feelings of the author were really touching, but for me her comment/suggestion (mentioned above) was more important than her feelings. So readers, try to understand the moral of the story !!!!!!

Thats right ! People generally forget the story/feelings, but they tend to remember the “moral of the story” !!!! [:)]

khush says June 14, 2008,11:10 am
@ Nitin and Pankaj
listen to one thing, I also went to one of the old age homes in Meerut,we went there with some fruits and blankets. I went there 3 years back and when I met with those old people they all became so happy and cried.
My friends and I talk to them and listen to there stories, they all had ONE thing to say ,,,,,All stories are almost same and taht is ,,,” there children lived abroad and they don’t have anyone to look after them so they have dumped them to this old age homes…” but there were many cases were like because of their daughter in law’s interferences their son has thrown them to this hell. Old age home give assistance to old people but it is like hell only…
when they met us they became so happy and missed their children…I can’t tell you the tragic situation I felt there…..they all were so good…My next article/story would be dedicated to those old people who are living their life like hell after having children settled abroad… :X

its a very heart touching story…full of emotions dat really made drops of tears cme out of my eyes..!!
d story talks abt a comlex relationship of a child wid his parents…it perfectly showed how complex a relationship can become if it is not handled properly…
i believe it was d fault of d daughter as well as the mother n dats y their relation such a critcal stage..
d daughter could ve tried to find d reason for her hatred twrds her mother n at d same time d mthr could ve tried to tel her d truth at an apporpriate time..!!
all in all i must say- good job done by the author..!!!

Hey Nitin whom do u want to blame
love and care is a must for everyone old or young
ur saying u have seen old people crying due to lack of love and care
but there are many children who cry becoz of the same reason due to lack of love and care from their parents
But whom do we blame
Parents who work hard day and night in an effort to provide the best for their children
or the children who after getting a job
strive to provide the same for their own children
BAS PYAAR SE KUCH NAHI HOTHA DOST
(FINANCIAL SECURITY is a must)
khush says June 14, 2008,12:49 pm
@ Rocky
you know what all we need..We need time for each other, we are so busy in our own lives taht we forget about our relationships and don’t get time to talk to our parents also. I will not go far, even I don’t spare 10 mintues in 24 hours to talk to my mom and dad se baat kiye hue to week nikal jata hai..
It is only WE who are careless and show our ignorance towards our parents. we forget that what our responsibilities are towards them.. Parents chahe kaise bhi ho afterall they are parents and parents are never BAD….they are GOD, and if we make them cry then undoubtdly we will getthe same in future from our children..
You are right pyar se kuch nahi hota financial security is also necessary, but see in the race of earning more and more where are we moving?????…
Hope you will get an answer soon,,,when you will become fatherm and grow old….money is important to live life but it is not everything…
rocky says June 14, 2008,12:56 pm
“It is only WE who are careless and show our ignorance towards our parents.”
@khuush
dont u think that most of the parents are also ignorant
towards their children huh
khush says June 14, 2008,1:04 pm
@ Rocky
yes, they are but that doesnt mean we also show our attitude towards them, if they are busy then it is only because tehy are working for us… everyone is not perfect we must understand this and should cooperate with our parents and move with them for a better relation…
rocky says June 14, 2008,1:15 pm
oh oh oh oh cmon yaar
if parents (old) cant understand the problems of their children (working, young just started their married lives and their own careers)
how can u expect underage (minors)children to understand the problems of their parents(working for them)
and let me tell u this isn’t about attitude or any ego problems
its just that they are forced to do such things
a child always loves his parents and a parent always cares for his/her children
Rani Singh says June 14, 2008,1:25 pm
i beg to disagree…..parents are the one to bring their children to such an status, caring throughout their life.n when the turn of kids comes into picture….parents gets neglected.parents should always be first in the priority list of their children
khush says June 14, 2008,1:27 pm
@ Rocky
its not parents who don’t understand but its the children who don’t understand tehir parents most of teh times..Parents can’t do anything wrong to their childrena nd whatever they think and do ,,,will do for teh good of their child….Don’t force me to set u abd give examples of my own
rocky says June 14, 2008,1:38 pm
Parents can’t do anything wrong to their children and whatever they think and do
@khuush
Tu aise bol rahi as if children want to do wrong to their parents
People are forced to do such things not by choice (parents ko old age home rakhana and all)
khush says June 14, 2008,1:43 pm
@ Rocky
Exctly, parent don’t want to do anything wrong to their children and its only and only children who don’t understand and in 98% cases children don’t understand their parents. I have seen many parents who have worked for tehir children so hard and when they grow old they don’t have anyone to look after them, in fact children settle abroad and at other places for tehir lucrative jobs and leave tehir parents behind to the Hell named OLD AGE HOMES……
there is no doubt that these homes take care of teh old people but they cannot fulfil the need of the old people…the need of ” LOVE & CARE”
rocky says June 14, 2008,1:45 pm
parents should always be first in the priority list of their children
@RANI
BUT i think there is also this saying
“FAMILY COMES FIRST”
family konsa family
mom dad bros and sis
ya
Husband, wife, daughters and sons
KIS KO FIRST PREFERENCE DENA CHAHIYE ????
khush says June 14, 2008,1:45 pm
@ Rani
Yes, you are rigt, parents should come first in everything the child do… :d
rocky says June 14, 2008,1:48 pm
@khuush
hey hey
tell u what most of the parents
(middle class, i have no idea about the rich)
want their children to settle abroad and earn only dollar salaries
again whom do u blame
khush says June 14, 2008,1:59 pm
@ Rocky
If I am not mistaken then parents also comes in the family who are the head of teh family. If you behave rudely with your parents and make tehir fun infront of other or throw them out of your house, hurt them ,,,then do you think you will be able to live a healthy life with your children? will your children let you stay in the house when you grow old? No tehy won’t..because GOD is there and we have to pay for the sins we do in our life in this life itself,, and Of course family comes first but family consist of Father, Mother, and Children,,,not only children ….
Rani Singh says June 14, 2008,2:07 pm
@rocky
i think i was explicit enough. i mean “parents”. parents are the part of the family…family includes from ur parents to u bieng a parent
khush says June 14, 2008,2:11 pm
@ Rocky
Hey Hey !!
See, here you clarify yourself, if they want their children to go abroad and earn dollars than it is only and only for their good will and good future, they sacrifice their love by sending them abroad..you cannot just b;ame parents for that,,,,it is the responsibility of the children to take care of tehir parents at their old age…
ankit says June 14, 2008,2:15 pm
most of the parents
(middle class, i have no idea about the rich)
want their children to settle abroad and earn only dollar salaries

@ rocky
well i believe dat parents want their children 2 do well..its nthng to do abt they wantng dem to settle abroad. they live in their own country or abroad..hardly matters..wat maters is dey r dng gud..n dat is wat parents want…but here cms d responsibilty of d children..as a child i dnt want to go abroad leaving my parents behind..if i’ll go i’ll tke dem wid me..
cmmn man!! u cant do nythning more than wat dey ve done for u…!!
Rani Singh says June 14, 2008,2:18 pm
hey kush…..i nice attempt bring a forum for knowing the view of the youth regarding the concept of family.
rocky says June 14, 2008,2:20 pm
why ru involving GOD into this
PARENTS work hard for their children and in return children throws them into old age homes (god se kya lena dena)
“we have to pay for the sins ”
a person who gets caught in between his own parents and his own family
(family boletho unka spouse and unke betta betti)
and who is forced to make a harsh decision of ignoring his parents should be shown some mercy not criticized
