Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed teachers, and my dear fellow students,
As we gather here today to celebrate Mother’s Day, I am reminded of the profound impact that mothers have on our lives. The lessons we learn from them extend far beyond the walls of our homes and echo throughout our entire existence. Today, I want to draw inspiration from a timeless literary piece, “The Portrait of a Lady,” to reflect on the essence of motherhood and express our gratitude to all the mothers in our lives.
In “The Portrait of a Lady,” we witness the unwavering love and dedication of the protagonist’s grandmother, who serves as a guiding force through life’s ups and downs. Her selfless sacrifices, her quiet strength, and her unspoken prayers remind us of the countless ways in which our own mothers shape our destinies.

Just like the grandmother in the story, our mothers are our pillars of support. They wake us up in the morning with a gentle touch and a loving smile, they nurture our dreams, and they instill in us the values that guide our actions. They are our first teachers, imparting lessons of kindness, resilience, and compassion.
But motherhood is not just about nurturing and caring for us. It’s also about empowering us to stand on our own feet, to chase our dreams, and to become the best versions of ourselves. Our mothers encourage us to spread our wings and soar high, just as the grandmother in the story supports the protagonist as he embarks on his journey of education and self-discovery.
Today, as we celebrate Mother’s Day, let us take a moment to express our gratitude to all the mothers who have shaped our lives. Let us thank them for their boundless love, their unwavering support, and their endless sacrifices. Let us cherish the memories we have shared with them and pledge to honor their legacy by living with purpose and integrity.
To all the mothers out there, we say thank you. Thank you for being our guiding lights, our source of strength, and our greatest blessings. Happy Mother’s Day!
Thank you.
