The author reflects on the bittersweet nature of motherhood during the time of daylight saving changes. She emphasizes the complex emotions that mothers face, including joy, pain, and ambivalence. With the release of her new book, she delves into how maternal ambivalence can actually strengthen a mother's love. Key to this experience is recognizing what constitutes 'enough' for each individual mother. As she grapples with her own feelings, the piece offers a poignant exploration of motherhood's challenges and rewards.
"The reality of motherhood is indeed bittersweet because it is a fact that, as mothers, we constantly experience a range of feelings, including joy and pain, happiness and sadness."
"In both my personal and professional life, I often ask myself two questions: What do most mothers strive for in their mothering? And how does a mother establish and recognize her own benchmarks for success?"
