The Center of the Home

in #teamgirlpowa6 years ago (edited)

Do you believe a home has a center? Yes! There is in fact, someone who qualifies to be the center of the home. Now who could that be??

The true center of every home is the mother. No one else can ever take her place. Her tastes, her desires, her ideals, like those of the little mother bird (I talked about in a story here) will influence everything that goes on within that home. All the interests and activities of a happy family center around the mother. If she is kind and cultured, her home will reflect her fine ideals. But if she is careless or ignorant, the home will quickly show her poor attitude or lack of training.

Education is very important to a young man if he is to succeed in the business and professional world. Everyone will agree on this. But education in the art of home-making is even more important for a young woman, for into her hands has been committed the very future of the human race. Every girl should be given thorough training in the principles of health, child care and home skills. The success of the family, the community, the nation and the world depends on the young women of today and the kind of homes they establish. There is no greater responsibility than this.

The woman makes sure that the home is bright filled with sunshine and warmth. The atmosphere and environment of the house should be sweet and clean for the family to live and enjoy.

Above all, it should be a place of joy and love, a place where the door is ever open to friends and neighbors, and where even strangers will be received with hospitality and kindness.

Remember this. Happy parents create happy homes. Happy homes produce happy children. Happy children make a happy community, and happy communities make a happier world.

I hope you know this doesn't apply in single dads homes, even though you have a point.

In that setting, the single dad is the center if he performs the house-keeping duties as it should

This is a lovely piece @scarletmedia. The father is the head of the family,we are not arguing, but the mother is the centre of the family. Everything in the family revolves around her;the father and the children.Without her family is incomplete..Great point of view you've got.

Oh thank you for your contribution @marvesttsy. Everyone has a role to play in a home, yes, but the woman is at the center of it all while the man is the head.

Cheers!

A house is just a building or structure, but with people living in it harmoniously and loving and respecting each other, it becomes a home, but the centre of this home is the woman, a wife or a mother, who is the light of the household. Thank you for sharing, @scarletmedia. This is very inspiring. Definitely worth resteeming!!!

Thanks so much @evlachsblog. I appreciate the comment! Have a blessed week!!

You too, love. Have a blessed week!

The impact/dunctions of a Mother is like functions of salt in food

If present, you feel nothing... But, if absent, you her absence...

I love my mom
I wish for my mom to reap the fruits of her relentless selfless labor... AmEn

Amen to that! 😁.

A wife's/mothers presence in a home is of extreme importance since most men are not ready or incapable of taking up the kinds of burden borne by a woman in the name of home-keeping.

God bless all mothers!

Amazing stuff. Following your blog. Cheers. :)

Aww...thank you so much.
Do have a lovely day!
Cheers!!!

I feel sometimes under a siege of my folks, but in average, it is a good feeling to be a center.

It is. If you pull it off well to the admiration of family and friends, it is a good feeling. I wish to experience it when the time comes... Still single 😉
Thank you @aschatria
