What a beautiful memoir.

Love has so many faces.

Embracing the sorrow and all the shades of this weird light...

Oh man. It must have been real.

I appreciate your take, grief and love are both definitely very complex

I struggled writing this one because of those painful memories coming back but feeling those is part of the process I guess, thank you for reading ❤️

Oh this is heartbreaking but so very real….

I wish I never left my mother when she was in hospital after a stroke. I wish I stayed… 😥

So reading this tore me apart. But in a good way. 🌷

Thank you Brenda, I’m sorry this post brought up those feelings for you. While we can’t change the past, I find solace in knowing that our loved ones wouldn’t want us to dwell on regret, but rather relish in the good memories they gave us 🫶

Yes very true. I still battle with my mother’s death. But yes she would want me to cherish the good times ❤️
