We look at our parent as invincible. They have always been there and they always will.
As children we need that stability in our lives and could not think any differently or our world would be upside down.
As adults we come to know the reality of life. My mother passed away a little less than a year and a half ago. I never suspected she would die of accidental injuries suffered from a fall in her home.
Just use the knowledge to create memories that honor your mother this Sunday and appreciate the gift that she is. Most mothers sacrifice and never say a word. They know the importance of putting themselves second to help their children. They know a kind voice will make the hurt go away when we are small. Mothers know that keeping calm and acting as if nothing is wrong when the world
is upside down creates a calm world for those most important to them.
Don't let the day pass without letting her know how much you love her. Give her a hug, a little something that makes her remember all those fun moments you shared as a child. One of the most prized possession my mother had was the photo album. Put together her photos for her, by the year, by the event. It is great fun to drag it out at family gathering and have a good laugh going over all those special moments.
The time and memories you create for with your mother on her special day may be the best gift she will ever receive.
Mother's Day...I want to wish all the Mothers, not only here at Active Rain, but everywhere, a Happy Mother's Day. Thank you for making a difference in our lives.
A little note. From me to my Mom.
I may not have shown how much I appreciated you for all the extras you did for me. I may not have taken the time to listen as closely as I should have. I probably could have could have made my life easier if I had followed your example but I just want you to know....you were always there...you were always a rock and I loved you in so many ways.
Happy Mother's Day!
Love Gary
