What saddens me…
Aboard the cab today, my sister and I were talking about our Mom. We were lamenting the fact that it’s just too bad our Mom is not here with us anymore now that we can take her shopping whenever she could have wanted to… now that we can give her the things she would have [...]

Should’ve been 55
Flowers, most specially, remind me of my mom. She loved flowers and anything floral. She used to have floral tops and skirts. She also loved any decor that had flowers in it.

Orchids…
My mom loved orchids. When we were younger, she used to have orchids at home and would spend so much time taking care of it. She had a variety and she was so proud of it. I can’t remember anymore what happened to it but I do know that she was able to sell some [...]

Old songs and mom
This song always reminds me of weekends spent quietly at home… Old Photographs by Jim Capaldi. An old song. And old songs remind me of my mom. And how much I miss her… How much I regret that now that I can bring her to places she’d always wanted to go to, she’s not here [...]

Mom…
I was so touched when I saw this postcard from PostSecret. And of course, it reminded me of my mom. My mom who I could no longer hug and tell I love her. My mom who was the best ally I ever had. My mom who loved me for who I was and never sided [...]
