Thanks for the blog about your mother.
I...Hi Marla,<br />Thanks for the blog about your mother.<br />It takes courage to point out out mothers imperfections. Mothers love is supposed to be so pure and unconditional and often it is the opposite.<br />I know many people who were severely damaged by abuse from their mothers. <br />I have a lot of resentment about mine. She went to the Mother's School of Guilt, Narcissism, and Passive Aggression.<br />It took me a long time to figure out how wrong she was. I cringe at Mother's day. Mine is still around at age 91 and I got to a point where i could not send her a card at Mothers day because I felt like a hypocrite.<br />I wonder what it would be like if you could go to a Hallmark store and pick out a card that really described your mother, instead of the flowery stuff about how wonderful they are.<br />Also at the eulogy, how about telling the truth?<br />Wouldn't the world be a better place if we could?<br />Thanks for what you wrote.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815106778205062351.post-81920564951971641312010-09-09T10:06:39.968-07:002010-09-09T10:06:39.968-07:00Thanks Jim.

Loss does not mean you lost the game...Thanks Marla. Loss does not mean you lost the game.<br /><br />I like this paragraph...especially the last line:<br /><br />"I trust my team, it is in the trust of my team that grace is found. I feel it in my bones, or at least for the time being I do."<br /><br />Keep pitching your work to us. Grace will follow.Jim Boylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07638958743779109380noreply@blogger.com
