Don’t Settle Down Mom
Take Life On The Go!
There can be no single meaning of “settling down” just like there is no specific definition of “enjoying life”. Every single being wishes to travel the journey of life their own way by carving their own paths and choosing their own destinations.
To some life is a journey to be travelled, an adventure to be experienced and a dream to be lived. On the contrary, to some it may be living a quiet and constant life aka “settle down”.
Settling Down
When we mention “settle down” we subconsciously state the most unsettling statement. Settling down is a goal which needs you to be on your run most of your life only to reach a stage when you realize that you have missed the entire fun.
When do we actually settle down? When we are done with studying, when we acquire a good job, when we find the love of our life, or marriage, having kids and then their studies and then their marriage and jobs. Have you realized that at each stage our idea to settle down gets pushed to the next stage and we wait for almost all our lives to reach that never ending goal.
The Question to your Answer
The entire mismatch happens because of the answer we have already written to a question which we never asked.
That once we accomplish something we have attained the meaning of our lives and we don’t need to explore any further. Not to get discriminative however, the concept of settle down is glaringly visible in the woman populace either after being wedded or majorly post being a mother. That becoming a mother has now given them the ultimate meaning to their existence and they can now “settle down”. Any further experiences, adventures, learning, struggle, expectations or identity is needless.
We ignore to ask ourselves if this is what life is? Being a mother is the best feeling a woman can ever feel – content, happiness, peace. But do we want to settle here and stop.
Moms – Don’t settle down!
Life is much beyond anything we have ever imagined. It is a beautiful fable which has its pages of smiles and tears, ups and downs. Moms explore yourself, struggle with new adventures, be fearless and make mistakes, fall and then rise, learn and unlearn and above all find pleasure in loving yourself.
Motherhood is not the finish line or the “settle down” point. It is the start of an adventure, an expedition you go on with your child.
Don’t settle down Moms. Let your fears, hesitations and negligence settle down!
