As heartbreaking as it is for those of us on the "outside" who still remember the past and that there is a future...there is something very powerful as you clearly understand about your mother's presence, moment by moment...each single moment brand new. I'm sorry for the pain it causes you to witness her transitioning from the mother you remember to the mother who seems to be fading. And I'm glad you were able to celebrate her birthday with her as an embodied being...while you were there, she was there and you both experienced joy in that tender exchange of love and awareness.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15349928247626849914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773948027407820171.post-51837368937995927652011-10-05T14:41:42.997-06:002011-10-05T14:41:42.997-06:00You capture feelings with words exquisitely.

My mother and I were close, but we were a little estranged when she died. She too had retreated to a place that I couldn't reach. I did love her and I think she knew that.Linda Medranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03440058568073764902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773948027407820171.post-56809099342631799862011-10-03T15:03:50.915-06:002011-10-03T15:03:50.915-06:00You have such a wonderful way of capturing these m...You have such a wonderful way of capturing these moments, seasoned with a touch of melancholy, yet the heartiest flavor, though you were not close, the heartiest flavor is the love you share in each of these difficult moments.

Mostly because I love your contemplation about a mother daughter relationship and they way you touched on the spiritual, or perhaps on the fact that part of us might wonder off somewhere some day, to another place we can not even imagine today. I loved your melancholy in this post and the way you describe the reality of life, as at times it is anything but sugar sweet...<br />Have a lovely Monday and happy belated birthday to your mom.;)<br />xoxoZuzanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02137958790178864561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773948027407820171.post-22034518645424330152011-10-02T13:20:37.140-06:002011-10-02T13:20:37.140-06:00You are a good and lovely daughter.
