Name of the lesson: My Mother
Name of the Author: A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
Introduction: This line is taken from the narrative essay 'My Mother', written by A.P.J.Abdul Kalam, the 'Missile Man' and former President of India. He is popularly known as 'People's president and' Vishwa Guru. Kalam was honoured with Bharat Ratna in 1997.
Context: The is an extract from his autobiography essay My Journey: It portrays the devotion and love with which Kalam's mother served the family and guests.
Explanation: Kalam grew up in a large middle class joint family in Rameswaram. His parents, Jainulabdeen and Ashiamma, grand parents, uncles and their families lived in the same house. Guests dropped in everyday and had their meals. The money earned by kalam's father was just enough to take care of their basic needs. But Kalam's mother never complained. Though she had to cook large quantities of food and serve several people, she never expressed anger or irritation. She felt it was her duty to take care of the family and guests. Honouring guests was an accepted Indian custom in those days.
Critical comment: Kalam uses a simple yet impressive style to narrate his memorable experiences with his mother. Kalam's mother, Ashiamma worked hard, spent a little and served guests patiently as they were members of the household.
