Although 'mothers day' will be a happy time for lots of mothers and children, there are also many who will find this day difficult and painful for many different reasons. Whatever your situation be kind to yourself, give yourself some tender loving care.
We can all nurture each other by making time to care for one another. Mothering isn't just for our species, plants, animals etc. are mothers too. Milk and cheese produced by cows, goats and sheep connects us to the grass and pasture flowers that go into the milk, the pasture flowers are part of the land. Thanks to Mother earth who nourishes us every day.

Thay speaks of a being very moved by a Japanese custom on a special day for remembering mothers.
ReplyDeleteThose who have a mother still alive wear one colour of flower and those whose mother is no longer alive wear another colour of flower. In this way those who have a mother still alive can be reminded to fully appreciate them and those who no longer have their mother with them can share their memories and sorrow of loss.
