Happy Mothers' Day!

Happy Mothers' Day to all mothers in the world. 
Today is your big day and we have to celebrate. 
Nurturing us for nine months in the womb, and enduring all the pain. 
Our mothers know what's best for us, 
working hard to give us a bright future. 

And what will be the greatest gift for our mothers? 
It's the gift of love and she deserves all the love in the world! 

​Below is a heartfelt message by our Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte 
to his mother and ​to all the mothers in the world.

---

Anyone can be called mothers ​
for mothers are not limited to our biological mothers.
When they treat us like our mothers, 
they too become mothers for us. 
An adopted child looks up to his adoptive mother 
as his very own mother 
and those children taken care by their relatives or other people 
also treat them as their very own. 
 
Single fathers can be called mothers too 
when they provide for their children alone. 
And anyone else who treats us like his own children 
we can automatically call our mother. 

Even though we consider our very own mother 
to be the best mother in the world, 
there is the One Mother who is greater than any mother. 
And She's our Mother Mary, Mother Of Christ Jesus, 
who always prays for us to the Almighty. 
​
Happy Mothers' Day Mother Mary! 
Pray for us always.
