A mother gives life to a child, a teacher gives life to the future.

Some births happen in silence. Others happen in light.
And every human being experiences both.

The first birth is from the mother’s womb, a place of warmth, safety, and unseen love. Here, a tiny heartbeat grows strong, shielded from the noise and storms of the world. The mother nourishes her child with her own strength, carrying a life she has not yet seen but already knows better than herself. This is the birth of the body, the moment we enter the world breathing, crying, and alive.

The second birth is from the teacher’s womb, not of flesh and blood, but of patience, knowledge, and faith. This womb exists in classrooms, in quiet moments of encouragement, in the spark of curiosity ignited by a question. Here, the mind is fed with ideas, shielded from the shadows of ignorance, and guided toward the light of understanding. This is the birth of purpose, the awakening of our ability to think, choose, and shape our own path.

A mother gives us existence.
A teacher gives that existence meaning.

A mother holds life in her womb, cradling it in love, guarding it from harm, and feeding it with her own strength. A teacher holds the light of knowledge in their soul, offering it to young minds, protecting them from darkness, and feeding them with wisdom. A mother gives the world a child; a teacher gives the world a future.

Without mothers, there would be no humanity. Without teachers, there would be no civilization.
One gifts us a heartbeat. The other teaches us what to do with it.

We are all born twice: once into life, and once into purpose. To honor only the first is to live half a life. To honor both is to understand who we truly are.

So cherish the two wombs that shape us — for in their care lies the story of every life, and the future of all humanity.
