Self Discovery

And while I start looking out for myself who is lost deep down inside amidst the morning hustle bustle and running endless chores at home, I figure out after becoming a mom of two , becoming a stay at home mom and taking a break from work was entirely my choice!!

And then, there are these self-rediscovering trips I embark upon to understand that this is the change time brings and this change is absolutely a change in life, a change in personality, a change to discover a new side of me, a change to look at life with a different perspective. This change is what transforms a woman to a mother!!

Yes, like every other new mother, I am learning and this persistent learning is making me a new person. My two little munchkins, 7 & 2, teach me something new every day perhaps something that I haven’t learnt in my profession of teaching for years together! Just like every other new mom, when I itch to resume my normal life I lived pre motherhood and wishing when I would get that quiet ME time and lonely space at home, I recognized that this little quiet time wouldn’t have made any sense unless these two hadn’t come into my world to make it what it is today!

And yes, this is my first flight to my self-discovery trip that made me ponder over thoughts which I would never look into otherwise. It’s being a mother that has helped me become a stronger and a better person! I am no longer just a woman, I am a MOTHER!

Strangely, this is what my ME time gave me when I wanted to use the time away from the kids to write something about myself! I ended up writing about myself, a new self which has been created and taught by my kids. A discovery of a new side of me!

Happy mothering!
