Potential as a Mother

All I want to be and have ever wanted to be is a mother.  I see it as such a blessing to be able to bring a child into this world.  Some women resent this opportunity because they feel that they are only viewed as capable of bearing children.  They feel that bearing children is all they are good for.  If having a child was the only reason I was sent to this Earth, I would feel so blessed and honored.  I don't understand why people see being a mother as unsuccessful or a waste of time.  You wouldn't be here without one.  I only wish that people would see being a mother as a blessing.  Who am I, when Heavenly Father has trusted me to raise His children, to refuse that trust?  I hope all women know they are capable of so much, not just having children.  We have talents, we have intelligence, we have personalities.  All of these things decide our potential.  Being a mother is proof that we have potential for no child should have a mother without it.  Luckily, every woman is given potential.  They just need to choose to use it.  And even if having children was all I was destined for, I would rejoice in that blessing.
