When I was first asked to give a talk on mothers‚ since it would be mother’s day. I started wondering how Mother’s Day came to be.

On this Special Day I would like to recollect the words of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru on the eve of India’s Independence. “Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny‚ and now the time comes when we will redeem our pledge‚ not wholly or in full measure‚ but very substantially. A moment comes‚ which comes but rarely in history‚ when we step out from the old to the new‚ when an age ends and when the soul of a nation‚ long suppressed‚ finds utterance ....
