My Mother Embodied Selfless Love – Henry Makow – Today is Mother’s Day in the US

By her example, my mother,
Helen Iskowicz Makow (1919-1983),
taught me that love is selfless
“I grew up in an era when the media taught us that homemakers were not cool. Women like my mother who nurtured and loved their families were denigrated. That attitude rubbed off on me.”
Satanists are all about degrading and dehumanizing us by destroying institutions like Motherhood. Evil wants us too frightened and distracted to honor our mothers on Mother’s Day.

My biggest regret is that I never showed my mother how much I loved her before she died in 1983 of breast cancer.
(Left. The nuclear family is the building block of a healthy society. Dad took this picture of us.)
She taught me how a woman brings love into the world by her selfless dedication to family. When someone totally sacrifices for you, when someone is unconditionally for you, it’s pretty hard not to love them back with all your heart.
Mothers are the unsung heroes of society. They do the difficult, thankless work of nurturing and teaching helpless children in sickness and in health.
My mother’s credo was to serve her husband first, children second, Canada third and Israel fourth. She wasn’t on her own list.
She never demanded anything in return; and as result, we took her for granted. We exploited her.
She was so selfless that I noticed when, once at dinner, she took a choice cut of chicken for herself.
We had an accident. The car door flew opened and my mother fell on to the pavement.
I screamed in panic, “Mom!”
Thankfully, she wasn’t hurt.
Why did it take an accident to show her that?
My mother
had survived the war by passing as a Gentile.She didn’t finish high school and didn’t read books. But she had a sophisticated stamp collection and made batiks.When I was eight-years-old, I related an incident that occurred at school. She told me to be strong and stand up for what is right.
You don’t learn that in school. You learn that from life.
Mother’s Day is just a modern construct, probably to get people to spend money.
Mothering Sunday (which is its proper title) represented the mothering of the church and had nothing to do with flesh and blood people.
In its origins it was often the weekend when the young girls in service (as so many were) were able to have a day off to go home, as they’d been kept busy with Easter in the houses in which they worked. Apparently they often picked wild flowers on the way to give to their mums.
So many of these lovely customs have become vulgarised and Days have been invented for fathers, secretaries and anything that could be thought up to get people to part with their money.
This article is not really about Mother’s Day, but about the importance of the role of being a mother, and how the role of the mother is being destroyed by Satanism. It just happens that Henry Makow chooses to post on this day each year in memory of his mother and to highlight the outstanding mother she was, hopefully to encourage other women to come to the realisation of this critical role in family life.
I’ve seen a hen attacking a fox to protect her chicks. It didn’t end well, but the chicks were saved. The role mothers play in the world , self sacrificing for her offspring is nature at its most awesome. Selfless love sums it up, in the vast majority of cases. One point, I’ll make is that mothers should be, “IMHO”, allowed to, should she choose to, smack her kids. I’m not advocating battering, which I personally experienced, but a smacked bum for cheek etc did good.
