Finding Your Way
When you lose your mother some would say that you lose a sense of yourself. You have to re-define who you are without this person that is suppose to be the one constant in your life. This is the person that brought you into this world, took care of you when you were sick, and according to most would sacrifice herself for you. But now she is gone and you have to change. You hear says like, “everyone has a mother” and you start to think “I don’t”. It is a very difficult time and I don’t think it is something you ever completely finish.
When I was 16 and had just loss my mother I had to figure out who I was at that point but then I went to college and at a time when you are suppose to be figuring out yourself and life I had to decide again who I was going to be. But then life throws you curve balls and you have to re-adjust for them. Who am I as a woman without my mom, as a wife without my mom, as a mother without my mom. It is those moments that bring it all back to you and show you who you really are.
