    I was forwarded this message by a friend which I am sharing with you:
    I Am A Mother

    A Long Time ago, the Officer At The Driving License Counter had asked me :
    " What is Your Occupation ? "

    I was a bit Puzzled.
    So The Officer Said
    " Ma'am, Are You Employed,
    Have you Your Own Business or........

    I enthusistically replied :
    " Oh, Yes !!
    I Have A Full Time Occupation.
    I Am A Mother "

    Officer : " We Don't Have ' Mother ' As An Option For Occupation.
    I Will Write it Down As ' Housewife '.
    That Takes Care Of All Questions."

    And I was blessed with a Licence !!

    This Had Happened Long Ago,
    And Was almost Forgotten.

    Years Later, When I Went To Get my License RENEWED ,The Public Relations Officer Was A Somewhat Pompous and Curt Woman.

    " Your Occupation ? "
    She asked in a rather Authoritative Tone.
    I was tempted to mention the word "House-wife", and in fact, almost did , But
    I just had an impromptu Inspiration and replied :
    " I Am A Researcher and a Practicenar in the field Of Child Development, Nutrition, Inter-Personal Relationships
    and Adult & Senior Citizen Management. "

    The Lady Officer Stared At Me in Amazement.
    I Calmly Repeated My Statement And She Wrote it Down Verbatim.
    Then, Unable To Conceal Her Curiosity,
    She Politely Asked
    " What Exactly Do You Do in Your Profession, Ma'am ? "

    I Was Feeling Good About Having Described My Occupation So Calmly And Confidently.
    So I Replied
    " My Research Projects Have Been Going On For A Number Of Years
    ( Mothers Never Retire !! ).

    My Research is Conducted in The Laboratory As Well As in The Field.
    I Have Two Bosses.
    (One is God and the other is my entire family).
    I Have Received Two Honors in This Field.
    (A son and a daughter)
    My Topic is Considered To Be The Most Difficult Part Of Sociology.
    ( All Moms will Agree!! ).
    I Have To Work More Than 14 Hours Every Day.
    Sometimes Even 24 Hours Are Not Enough And The Challenges Are Tougher Than Many Other Professions.
    My Compensation is in Terms Of Mental Satisfaction Rather Than Money "

    I Could See That The Officer Was Thoroughly impressed.
    After Completing The License Renewal Formalities,
    She even came to the Door to see Me off !!

    This New Viewpoint About My Occupation Made Me Feel Much Better On My Way Back Home.

    I Was Welcomed By My 5 Year Old Research Assistant At The Door.
    My New Project (My 6 Month old Baby) Was Energetically Practicing Her ' Music '.

    I Had Earned A Small Victory Over The Governmental Red Tape Today.
    I Was No Longer ' Merely A Mother ',
    instead I Was Now A Highly Placed
    Functionary in A Service Vital For Mankind -Motherhood !!

    ' Mother ' - Isn't it A Great Title.
    Fit To Be Added To The Nameplate On The Door !!

    By This Standard, Grandmothers Deserve To Be Called Senior Research Officers, And Great Grandmothers Qualify As ' Research Directors '.
    Aunts And Other Ladies Of That Age Group Can Be Called ' Research Facilitators '

    Please Share This With All Mothers, Grandmothers, Great Grandmothers,
    All Ladies Currently Holding Posts Like
    Didi - Tai - Chachi - Mami - Mausi - Bua ......
    They Will All Shower You With Blessings And Life Will Be Happier.

    All Husbands, Fathers, Please Note.
    They Must Read !!!!

    THERE IS NO ONE TO RACE PAST US MOM!!!!:thumbsup

    I always full up the column Occupation as HOMEMAKER, never as housewife. Unless we respect our own self, we don't get the respect from society.

    Thanks for sharing.
