Losing A Mother.

Having lost both of my parents, I can speak with some authority, about the topic of parental loss, as are many others out there.

BOTH of my parents brought many, and more importantly, diverse qualities to their marriage, and subsequently, to me.

But I must admit, there is something about losing your mother, that affects in a different way.

A mother's love is rough, tough and solid.

Mothers are "The Ship" that weather every storm.

Our fathers are the "Captains"

We are the cargo.

Mothers are the hardware.

The vessel.

The muscle.

Real Power.

Think about it.

Without a ship, what good is a captain?

And mothers do it, day in and day out, without question.

They are the unimportant, forgotten reason we can get from point A to point B.

And we cease to forget that; until you are without it.

Let that ruminate.

As Mother's Day approaches, don't forget.

She loved you first.

And she got you to where you are.

Xoxo,
