Where to Take your Mom on a Date
May 10, 2022
Mother’s Day may already be over in your part of the world but everyday, we celebrate moms. They are considered to be the light of every home, bearing children to grow the family and being in charge of everything about the household. Aside from that, they also live busy lives as employees or girl bosses. Some assume leadership roles and lead a group, department, company, or even the country. Needless to say, we are talking about fierce and powerful women.
These women lay the foundation for the backbone of society. After nine months of pregnancy and eight hours of labor, these women have assumed a lifelong responsibility as soon as they leave the hospital and take their newborn home for the very first time. But sadly, this intact relationship eventually ends. After the children’s time at home with the immediate family, they set off to build their lives elsewhere, on their own. Moms are somehow forgotten, neglected, and left to their own devices. Maybe we haven’t noticed it; maybe most did but chose not to acknowledge it. Our relationship with our mom drifts apart when we leave home.
We prioritize work or our friends more than spending quality time with the family. We slowly become absent in what used to be regular family gatherings because we’re going to go somewhere with our friends. We fall prey into forgetting our value for our moms just because we don’t get to see them that often.
It doesn’t change the fact that moms are very understanding. They know that eventually this will happen when their kids grow up. Even though there will be times of struggle, they know that the highs outweigh the lows. Even though goodbyes in their motherhood life would be painful, they know that their love is unconditional. They might not see their kids that much anymore but they’ll always be a present figure in their lives, especially with all the lessons they taught their children growing up. What they can only wish is that they’ve prepared their children well enough for their individual adult lives.
But this goes with saying that we should never take our mothers for granted. Even though there will be lots of times that we don’t see things eye to eye, our love for our mothers and vice versa will always prevail. So Mother’s Day may already be over, but we should never forget to take our moms out for dates, to make them feel special and loved. Go see your mom often. Drop the excuses that you are too busy with work and you can’t squeeze in a quick date with mom, even if it’s just going to be twice a month.
Plan your date according to your mom’s personality. She might be the outgoing type so prepare an outdoor activity you both can experience for the first time. You know that she has always wanted to do this but couldn’t because the little left for herself before was spent for sleep. Before, she might not have had the budget because the money was for the family. Since you now have your own job, you can finally pay it forward and treat your Mom to a special date.
Below are some spots you can explore with your mom at any time of the year. Remember that what matters the most to your mom is that she gets to spend the time with her kid and to create new memories with the people she loves.
