Loving Reminders for Mothers

Being a mother is the most important job in the world.” My Dad Bob Fisher


Mothers have the Power to change the world.
Mothers can create peaceful happy and successful children.
Mothers can build healthy families and marriages.
Mothers can be teachers of Love, Trust and Respect.
 

Where there is Love, there is trust.
Where there is trust, there is confidence.
Where there is confidence, there is success.
Where there is success, there is happiness.
 

When Mothers are responsible for their own well-being, they demonstrate positive self care.
When Mothers are respectful in their appearance, language and behavior, they teach respect.
When Mothers are sensitive to their own unique needs, they treat each person with sensitivity.
When Mothers honor each child’s choices, they set their children free to learn from their decisions.



Mothers have the potential for changing the world with conscious and conscientious mothering.
Mothers can teach their partners how to be respectful, trusting and loving of themselves and others.
Mothers can be the stable influence in changing times, providing constancy in meals and memories.
Mothers can create order and schedules, discipline and appreciation, sharing and togetherness. 



Look at all the best mothers you know and you will see what you can be.
It is not with demanding words or foolish friendship with children.
It is being happy, confident, communicating respectfully, and trusting that creates family harmony.
The best Moms are self fulfilled and happy and teach by their example with words and actions.


The critical parent teaches with fear and shame.
The nurturing parent teaches with love and appreciation.
The negative parent uses blame, shame and guilt.
The positive parent builds on successes with smiles and hugs.



If I could awaken women to their true nature, it would be to nurture the best in themselves and others.
If I could improve the modern family, it would be to create conscious mothers who teach respect with love.
If I could change the values being taught to our children, I would ask women to lead spiritually.
I can be the change I want to see in my own family, my home and my personal and professional life.

I do not gossip.
I do not interrupt my conversations.
I do not wear clothing, listen to music, or behave in ways I do not want children to see and emulate.
I do not buy, use or talk about things that are a waste of time, money and energy.

I do speak well about people or I do not speak at all.
I do focus on one conversation or project (cooking, writing, coaching, etc.) at a time.
I do offer words of encouragement and inspiration when asked for help or advice.
I do make choices on how I spend my time, money and energy based on what is truly Good of everyone.

Do you live the life you value?
Do you love yourself well?
Do you give to what is good for all?
Are you respectful and kind to everyone, including yourself?



I am reminding us to be the very best mothers we know how to be.
Loving us all as one,
Betty Lue
