Some women know from an early age that they want to be mothers. For others, though, the question of motherhood is a bit more complicated. When an unplanned pregnancy occurs, fear and uncertainty may appear instead of joy. Our aim is not to convince you that children will automatically fill your life with happiness, but we offer you the story of one mother who shares an important life truth.
Unplanned pregnancy? Maybe unplanned, but never accidental
“We often hear phrases like: We didn’t plan it, it happened or It was an accident and I got pregnant,” says one mom. These statements are usually uttered with a sigh and sometimes even with a hint of regret. And this attitude always strikes me straight in the heart.
I understand what it’s like to be taken aback by a pregnancy. My own mom became pregnant very young and missed many life opportunities in order to raise me. Still, she loved me with all her heart and sacrificed everything for me.
Life’s twists can lead to unexpected blessings
In my case I made a mistake when I forgot about contraception. I was with someone who wasn’t right for me. But when I looked at my son, I realized that even though the circumstances weren’t ideal, he himself was a blessing for me. Children are not a mistake or an accident – they are a gift that gives our lives meaning.
Don’t be consumed by a negative perception of an unplanned pregnancy
It’s important to realize that we are responsible for our actions ourselves. Pregnancy is not an accident; it is the result of our decisions and actions. Therefore we should stop using negatively charged words and accept this gift with an open heart. Once you hold your child in your arms, you will love them more than anything in the world.
In conclusion
It doesn’t matter whether you planned the pregnancy or not. When you hold your child, you will realize that it wasn’t an accident, but a blessing that was waiting for you. Children are never an accident; they are a gift that should be received with love and gratitude.
Share these beautiful words with others and help spread a positive view of motherhood and the gifts that life brings.
