A cry rises from the crib of a new born child.
The mother rushes into the room, scoops up her baby, & rocks it in her arms until it's cries fade into soft sobs, then eventually falls into a silent slumber.
From the moment we are born until the day we die, humans crave compassion. Children are dependent on their mothers love.
When a woman gives birth, she immediately sets aside her owns wants & needs to care for her baby.
The importance of this is displayed when the child grows up.
The kind of person a child becomes can show how it was parented.
It is crucial for a mother to give her child as much love & care as she possibly can so that the child can grow up & be a sensitive & caring person.
When the child matures into an adult & their mother is too old to take care of herself, the child now must care for her.
The child understands what it's like to not be able to take care of themselves & has learned how to be compassionate.
This is all thanks to the mother, whom raised the child from birth to become a sympathetic & understanding human being.
It is rather easy to take the straight path of only looking out for yourself.
It takes a truly genuine person to lay down their selfish nature & actually care for another.
