Your mother. She was your first love.
Before you were even born, she had the words to soothe you.
When you were a child and were scraped or bleeding, she had the words to ease your pain.
When you fell in love and had your heart broken, she had the words to heal you.
When you were getting married, she had the words to counsel you.
When you had children of your own, she had the words to mentor and reassure you.
When she was ready to go onto a new journey, she had the words to teach you acceptance.
This Valentine’s Day, you have the words. Tell your mother what she means to you. Don’t wait. Don’t put it off because of petty squabbles.
Give her the gift she has given you.
(for those of us that can’t)
