Being a housewife or housemom is
celebrated during certain events in a year but under the day to day grind, it
is usually seen as the lesser “career” or “profession.” Why though? Just
because someone wants to stay at home instead of pursuing a career, doesn’t mean
she is less of a person than those who strive to be at the top of their
careers. I’m not bashing those who are career people because it’s good that you
have such ambitions but please don’t let it get to your head and think
yourselves better than those who chose to stay at home. Others have “no choice”
as they prefer to have hands-on involvement with their children and making sure
that the house is a warm home that welcomes the kids and the husband.
So what if what you want is not the
rat race that everyone is scrambling for? If you want to be a stay at home wife
or mother then be the best stay at home wife or mother you can be. Do what can
be done to make your home a better place, make it into a “career” that can make
you happy and proud.
Until now, I still encounter people
who frown upon those who prefer to stay at home. They put their noses up in the
air and think lowly of those housewives/housemoms thinking the latter’s lives
are boring. If you do what you love, you will bloom and flourish. Not everyone
can be lawyers or doctors or nurses or what. Don’t fit yourself in a hole if
you’re a star. Be a star and shine and let others see that you are proud of
what you do and loving it.
