September Already
Hard to believe that the summer is considered over for most. It’s definitely over here in the interior, where the leaves are changing over in record numbers, and we wake to morning temps in the low 30s. Fortunately, our afternoons remain beautiful and warm (50s and 60s). And we’re in our 2nd week (or is it 3rd?) of sunshine!
I didn’t welcome the month of September with much excitement. September 1st was the second anniversary of my mother’s passing, and remembering her was the first thing I did upon waking. With her birthday coming on the 7th, this entire week has had a few sad moments.
My mother is always with me…
My mother lives inside my laughter. She’s crystallized in every tear drop.
She’s the place I came from, my first home. She’s the map I follow with every step that I take.
She’s my first love… and nothing on earth can separate us.
Not time, Not space, not even death will ever separate me from my mother. I carry her inside of me.
