When My Mom Died... Comments

My friend...life is rather complicated at best...replete with agonizing twists and turns. Think...good thoughts...of your mother..as perhaps.....having done the very best she could......under trying circumstances. And.....through lessons you've learned...continue striving toward a different connect with your children! Best wishes.

Dee, SO, they are going to get to know you... weather they want to or not! Wouldn't it be nice if more parents showed that kind of interest in thier children? Sadly, far too many don't. B.V.A.

The old cliche(hate groping for cliche's, but still i do) ''Go Forward''...is so apropos here, that i had to employ it. Your delving into what your Mom left behind, is normal, healthy & in many cases offers closure....And, though, in your case, total closure may not have presented itself, still it appears that you may have at least obtained a more concrete undersatanding as to the woman she was, and why she may have chose not to burden you with things that you could not change for her. Which, in essence, makes her, in her own way, a very special woman, and Mom.Great Work here, Ms.Dee, as always! ~ FjR ~ ..2008..

How very true Dee, and a wonderful decision to make and adhere to. Regrets are no good after the events, we need to open up and let people in to find the inner soul of us. Lovely write and a pleasure to read. Love and hugs Ernestine XXX
