Why do I have to mourn in Autumn? Why does the cold rain sink my heart when it should fly with those colorful dreams to next spring? To nurture me back to that little girl again running among  flowers and chasing butterflies when you watched me with that warm, loving smile?

Oh, mom, are you tired? You have always hated my pony tails. You wanted my hair down loss so you could see them softly around my face. You have always wanted me to wear dress so you could see me walk around gently as an elegant lady.

Mom, I have saved my hair and today I went for shopping for a colorful dress. You want me in red. You have said so many times that I looked nice in red. I searched in two stores and found the one I liked but it was 2  size samller. Mom, I will lose weight for you but can't do it in 5 days. I picked one that suited me. I know that you are going to say that I look much older in that color. It hurt my feelings. But now, i want that hurt because I want you to be able to speak again.

Mom, you can't leave me now. No matter how old I am, I need you.  I do. Oh, God knows, I do.

I understand and empathize with you and your feelings for your mother here. We are all wanting and wishing that our parents would love us just the way we are and accept us for the person we turned out to be with respect for our individuality. Nothing would make us happier. But we fight and we disagree most of the time (sometimes just out of spite) so we are left feeling as if we are unloved by them. But deep down, they love us...they need us and they want us in their lives. They sometimes find it hard to admit that they still love us even though they are disappointed. Even if they do not like where we are or what we are doing in life, we still should make that effort to let them know that we do hear them, we do see them and we do LOVE THEM.

Hope all is well...take care. (((HUGS)))
