where creative minds can interact
My mother...
Everytime I think of writing about my mother on here, I change my mind. I have so many mixed feelings, esp. right now when things are so difficult for me, my sister and my father. I have been playing the role of my mother, which she abandoned, in part, years before she passed away. I think she'd be here for me now and there is a part of me that helps me from beyond in getting through another day, another week, another year. She lost her mother young, at age 13, and it affected her for life. She had weight issues, and it affected her for life. She had psoriasis, and it affected her for life. She was chronically depressed, and it affected her for life. She had a favorite child, my sister, and it affected me for life. She died too young and it affected me for life! (More later)

I have written a blog in my mind off and on all day...what to share, what's important to me, what was important to her, what did she give to me, my family, her many friends, what story would she want me to tell. Still mulling things over! Lisa, I wish we still had our moms too. Ericka, no one is perfect and you do the best you can and the people that love you forgive you your faults and flaws.

Thanks for sharing Cassandra. Everything mothers do or not do effects us for life. That is why mothering is the hardest task any one will take on. I find it to be the hardest thing I ever done and I do not even know if I did a great job. All we can do is do the best with what we have and hope your children forgive you for the rest. ;-) Looking forward to reading more.
