We all need a bit of extra mothering in this pandemic, to feel her care, and her loving arms wrapped around us, as she tells us everything is gonna be alright.
My dear mom passed 10 years ago this month, but I can almost hear her Irish accent speaking these words to me, as if she were here today:
‘You may be quarantined in pandemic, but be grateful you have a home to be quarantined in.’
‘You may be inconvenienced, but you can breathe easily, and are not in hospital with your life at risk.’
‘You may be disappointed your book signing at Chapter’s Indigo Bookstore didn’t happen, but you have books fir sale on Amazon.com.’
‘You may be isolated, but you have people you love and who love you.’
‘You may miss eating in a restaurant, but you have food to eat.’
‘There is much more love and abundance than lack in this world.’
‘Much more faith than fear.’
‘You must make a sacrifice to help others in times of need, and your kindness will be returned tenfold.’
Thanks for the hugs Mom! xo
