I Have a Dream....

I have a dream...I wish I was a "Superwoman". No, I don't mean the kind like "Batman, Catwoman, Wonderwoman" etc. Just plain "Superwoman". She would be a WOMAN personified, but with SUPER powers that would make her strong, physically and mentally. She would have lots of patience, love, understanding, compassion, and most of all, a strong head on her shoulders. Something like this:

Now, I know you are wondering, what would I do with all that strength. Well, it's simple enough really. I could finish all the physical tasks that are to be done around the house, like getting my kid ready for school, preparing meals, doing the laundry, cleaning the house and doing the dishes etc all in a jiffy and you know what, the best part of it all would be that I wouldn't "feel" tired one bit. See, that's what I would like most of all. So, I would still be fresh as a daisy when my kid comes back from school, and I would be in a very "good" mood to welcome him home and deal with all his further demands as well as I could. I could smile the whole day and not look like as if a storm had hit the house by the time my husband gets home.

Imagine what fun it would be if I could indulge my son in physical sports like football, cricket, swimming, basketball, you name it. And I still wouldn't feel tired. What a cool MOM I would be then. I would have all the patience to entertain his friends without getting irritated and actually enjoy their company too.

I would then be able to deal with my husband's demands as well with equal zest and maybe enthusiasm at the end of the day! (Wink, wink)Hmm, Now, hey, who wouldn't want that!

But, at the end of the day, you see, since I am now so strong and have superpowers, I would obviously not be satisfied with just taking care of my own household and its members needs, I would like to do more. So, what better way than to get out in the world and spread a little cheer and warmth.

First of all, I being a mother, would obviously have the nurturing feelings also personified and so I would go out to seek those children who are miserable, unhappy, and unloved and give them all lots of love and hugs. I would try to spread some happiness, warmth and love in the bosom of all those children so that they would feel "wanted". I would build a shelter for all those children who are out in the streets and give them food and take care of them.

I would like to say that I would also like to wipe out all the "dirty scoundrels" and scum from the surface of the earth, but, guess what, I'll leave that task to the likes of "Batman, Superman, Spiderman" etc..

Well, now that I've tucked "all" my children into bed safely, guess it's time to say "Goodnight"! It's been a long day.

But, tomorrow is another day, and I look forward to it.
