Mother's Day
Happy Mothers Day
Mother Nature's splendor and mystery
are displayed everywhere we look, in every breath we
take, every heartbeat, every moment. Every living thing
depends on Mother Nature for survival and quality of
life. All life suckles from the sweet bosom of Mother
Nature. Mother Nature feeds us when we are hungry, heats
us when we are cold, heals us when we are sick and also
gives us waves to play with. Behind every ocean swell
you find the breath of Mother Nature blowing. In every
wave witness her formidable power and steadfast strength.
Thank you and Happy Mothers day.
Many say the greatest love on earth is a mother's love
for her child. Deeper than the sea, higher than the
tallest swells, a mother's love may be more powerful
than all the mighty waves in all oceans. A mother's
love cannot be measured or weighed but it can be seen
and it can be felt. Who -ever has a mother's full hearted
unconditionally love has something that is more valuable
than all the wealth in the world.
It is said: one of the greatest experiences ever is
surfing. Perhaps the greatest of all experiences is
motherhood. Nothing compares, but only a mom knows for
sure. It seems being a good surfer would be much easier
than being a good mom by far. Ride a few waves go home
and party may work for surfers, but not so for moms.
Unlike surfing, motherhood is a lifetime job with no
days off in between the swells to rest. No one said
motherhood would be easy. It is a lot of work and sometimes
more difficult than paddling out on a twenty-foot day.
Just like big wave surfers, you go it alone and take
the waves as they come.
Many surfers feel surfing is a spiritual experience.
With what mothers go through, motherhood just might
be the ultimate learning and spiritual experience. Anyone
can surf, but only a saint could put up with or do the
things some moms do. Maybe the pope should bestow sainthood
for all mothers.
Surfing the biggest waves on the planet would be a breeze
compared to giving birth. For one thing, big wave surfers
have generally surfed thousands upon thousands of waves
to gain enough knowledge and skill to attempt such a
feat. Big wave surfers get in a lot of practice in smaller
waves usually advancing upward in wave size slowly after
years of surfing. The best part of big wave surfing
is if you don't like the wave your riding, you can usually
get off it.
Prospective soon to be mom's, can read up, take classes,
and study about child birth all day long, which does
help them to prepare for child birth. But when it comes
time to actually give birth, there are no dress rehearsals
or practice sessions. Once the birth wave arrives, there
is no turning out or getting off. Many women would prefer
going over the falls on a large wave than going through
childbirth. Of the two choices, wiping out would be
a lot less painful. Bravery exemplified by big wave
surfing, pales in comparison to a woman's bravery when
she is about to and does, give birth to a child. The
miracle of surfing a giant wave lasts for just a moment,
the miracle of birth, a lifetime.
Experienced big wave surfers depend on master craftsman
to shape a special surfboard needed for success in their
quest of surfing huge waves. Every detail and contour
is carefully engineered and crafted to ensure the highest
levels of performance, dependability and success. The
results of a well-shaped surfboard are often referred
to as magic. These are the surfboards that make big
wave surfing easier, even if it's never easy.
Babies depend on their mom whether she is a master or
not. Infinitely more important than a big wave, a surfboard
shapers work is a mother's work whose craftsmanship
will shape an infants life. A child's performance in
life starts with a mother's attention to detail.
Every mother shapes the foundation for success on which
an entire life will ride. Children who grow up fully
and unconditionally loved by their mothers. perform
at their highest levels in all life endeavors thanks
to her never ending guidance, encouragement and support
along the way. Loving mothers have a tremendous influence
and positive impact when it comes to shaping a child's
successful future.
Thank you to Mother Nature and every mom, soon to be
mom, adopted mom and all moms worldwide. Thank you for
your love and nourishment. Thank you for warmth and
comfort. Thank you for your healing touch. May your
children's love be returned to you higher than a tidal
wave and last an eternity.
Happy Mothers day. Sea you in the surf.
