No one is happy twenty-four seven, life is not that perfect. Therefore, the next time you see someone in a happy place, don't be envious, because you don't know their journey. Neither do you know  what they've been through inorder to get to that one moment in time when they feel happy. It's so easy to see someone at their best and think they are more successful than you, just remember that everyone's gifts, talents and time, is different. Ultimately, we must learn to be comfortable in our own skin and to be equally confident in our calling once we discover what it is.

There's a wise African proverb that says, 'It takes a village to raise a child.' Therefore, Mothering Sunday is for every woman who has ever helped to  nurture another, with random acts of kindness,
 good deeds and encouragement. To you I say, Happy Mother's Day!
