OUR MOST LOVED AND GIVING MOTHER

She gave to each and everyone of us as no other could through nurturing and caring at our very beginnings.  For without her there is no me.

I do miss her, i'm sad and crying as I write these words and thinking of just how short life really is. 

I remember the day she passed, it was an autumn day, September 28, 2004 as I got up that morning and went about got ready and went off to my job. Outside it was a different sort of day as the weather was just a tad cooler and there was this slight breeze and yet the sun still was shinning. Living in the desert even in September it's still very hot.  It was late morning when she told me she was leaving.  I had gone out to run errands for my boss.  I went around the corner and I was looking up at a tree and just kept watching as the leaves blew back in forth in the breeze and as I focused in on a leaf it started to leave the branch and I stood there just watching it as it slowly fell to the ground and I did know she was gone.

Well, I finished off my work day and went home.  Then that early evening my sister Tammy called and told me she had passed.  

I can only hope that as she has passed and gone on that in her next life or the next plain she is on is good to her.  I do believe we either get reincarnated or go on to a different level of existence or go to your version of heaven.  This finality is something we won't ever really know till that time comes upon us and I hope for all that it's not soon.
