Mother's Day is coming up this weekend. Here's a very unique mother's day idea to spend the day with kids who have no mother.
Mother’s Day is coming up this weekend. But what about the thousands of children who don’t have a mother?
“The loveliest masterpiece of the heart of God is the love of a mother.” – Therese of Lisieux
Some say mothers are not rare! We all have mothers or how could we have possibly come into this world? Yes! It is true, it is our mothers who bring us into this world, but is each one of us lucky enough to experience that unconditional love of a mother?
Whether due to economic setbacks or societal pressure or the gender of the child, there are many unfortunate children living around us who are deprived of the purest form of love, a mother’s love. They live in orphanages and long to be hugged and experience a love that has no strings attached.
This Sunday, 8th of May, many of us will be celebrating Mother’s Day. It is a special day that has been dedicated to all the mothers in our lives to thank them for all the hardships and pain that each one of them go through in bringing up the kids and taking care of their families.
And on this day, we all strive to get the best gifts for our mothers so that we can honour them in the best way possible.
As we are busy thinking of the best gifts for our mothers, or looking forward to a day spent enjoying ourselves with our children, can we spare a moment for the unfortunate ones who don’t get to experience this love; who aren’t lucky enough to have a mother in their lives and are deprived of this love?
This year Mother’s Recipe has stepped in to fill in this gap for 500 children living in 15 orphanages across the country and gift them a day of happiness.
While many modern orphanages do provide their young inhabitants with the basics of life, it is true that they rarely get to celebrate a special day, or have fun out of the routine. This is where we can make a difference.
So instead of a brunch out, why not celebrate this Mother’s Day by spending a day at an orphanage with children? In the process, you not only give your time to a worthy cause, but also gift yourself the company of some wonderful kids.
Make this Mother’s Day more innovative, memorable and resourceful with the concept of #MotherForAll and celebrate it the Mother’s Recipe way! For all our readers in Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, Bengaluru & Kolkata, do visit the Mother’s Recipe FB page for more details.

I wanted to scream with excitement that my daughter chose to write about her ambition and aspirations over everything else first. To me, this was one of those parenting 'win' moments.
My daughter turned eight years old in January, and among the various gifts she received from friends and family was an absolutely beautiful personal journal for self-growth. A few days ago, she was exploring the pages when she found a section for writing a letter to her future self. She found this intriguing and began jotting down her thoughts animatedly.
My curiosity piqued and she could sense it immediately. She assured me that she would show me the letter soon, and lo behold, she kept her word.
I glanced at her words, expecting to see a mention of her parents in the first sentence. But, to my utter delight, the first thing she had written about was her AMBITION. Yes, the caps here are intentional because I want to scream with excitement that my daughter chose to write about her ambition and aspirations over everything else first. To me, this was one of those parenting ‘win’ moments.
Uorfi Javed has been making waves through social media, and is often the target of trolls. So who and what exactly is this intriguing young woman?
Uorfi Javed (no relation to Javed Akhtar) is a name that crops up in my news feeds every now and again. It is usually because she got trolled for being in some or other ‘daring’ outfit and then posting those images on social media. If I were asked, I would not be able to name a single other reason why she is famous. I am told that she is an actor but I would have no frankly no clue about her body of work (pun wholly unintended).
So is Urfi Javed (or Uorfi Javed as she prefers) famous only for being famous? How does she impact the cause of feminism by permitting herself to be objectified, trolled, reviled?
