Happy Mother's Day!

(For those of us who have lost our Mothers)

SHE IS ALWAYS WITH US
We cannot see her, but she is with us still. A mother is more than a memory. She is a living presence. Your mother is always with you.
She's the whisper of leaves as you walk down the street, she's the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you pick, and perfume that she wore. She's the cool hand on your brow when you're not feeling well, she's your breath in the air on a cold winters day. She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep, the colors of a rainbow, she is your birthday morning. Your mother lives inside your laughter. And she's crystallized in every teardrop. A mother shows every emotion..... happiness, sadness, fear, jealousy, love, hate, anger, helplessness, excitement, joy, sorrow.... and all the while hoping and praying you will only know the good feelings in life. She's the place you came from, your first home, and she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love, your first friend, even your first enemy, but nothing on this earth can separate you. Not time, not space..... not even death !
