I was feeling a little bit depressed this past few days. With all the mother's day presentations, shows, features in the media, I can't help but feel sad that this Mother's day will be the first time that I wont be able to celebrate it with her. As Mother's day gets closer, the feelings of longing became more intense.It is a painful day for me but I guess the pain will eventually subside in the next coming months. In time, my grief will eventually turn into complete healing and peace.
Every Mother's day, I usually give my mom a bouquet of red roses with a card. Then, she would lovingly put the roses in a vase and place it in the sala. Then every morning she would tell my father how she received a bouquet from me and not from him. you see, my father is a very kuripot man, and he doesn't like giving presents. But there was one time when my father gave me money and told me to buy something nice for mommy for mother's day. I bought her a bag and she was elated that my father already came to his senses and gave her something on Mother's day. :)
The first few weeks after my mother's death was awfully hard.
