Mama Said

[soonerferg]

Often lately I'll wonder what my mom would have to say about my problems and life in general lately. It will make me feel bitter, sad, or upset, because I know I'll never be able to talk to her for the rest of my life. As I thought about this longer, I realized I needed to stop mourning what cannot be and take advantage of what I have. My mother

thanks for your comment on my lj, it really lifted my spirits.

i don't know why you're mom was taken from you, and i've obviously never experienced that, so it's not like i can give any words of wisdom or anything that would change the situation. but i am certain that she was an amazing woman, and i can tell that by the person you became because of her. i'm glad she gave you life (physical life, as well as leading you to spiritual life) and i'm glad you could learn these amazing lessons from her in the time you had with her. I'm glad that you've got God to lean on, and you've got an amazing woman in your life (you know, the Cherith kind) to lean on and learn from as well. And I know this sounds cliche (if you can leave one in my lj, i can leave one in yours!), but you will get to see your mom again one day. I don't know if that's ever any consolation, but I'm excited for the day when you'll get to be with her again. Love ya, Fergs

While I hate when people tell me they know EXACTLY how I feel, I will say that I can relate to this post with about 90% accuracy... I know we were never that close, but if you would ever need to talk about losing her, I have first hand experience on the subject...
