I Admire My Mother

My mother was a very strong woman. A life long home maker, she never the less stayed intelligent in many different subject matters. I hope to emulate her one day.

Tbe best you can give your mother is to make her proud becoming the best person you can .. .. .. and maybe giving her grandchildren .. as children are the best gifts god ever gives .. .. ..

All mom's are great . Wish they were well supported well by their husbands (who are assholes at times)

@OKWTFN: Thank you for saying this. It takes a lot of nerve to make this kind of statement since you risk being labelled ungrateful or "immature," as if, as an adult, you don't know the difference between normal parental discipline and abusive behavior. When people say all mothers are wonderful they mean that [i]their[/i] mothers were wonderful and [i]most[/i] mothers are wonderful...they don't really mean to exclude those of us who have had awful mothers and make us feel outside the regular human race.

(For those who still don't understand about awful mothers, please read my story under the group heading: I Wan To Know The Truth Behind My Family's Lies and Secrets).

I do realize that this main post here is about the joy of having a wonderful mother, and sharing that memory with others here, including those of us who just weren't that lucky. I appreciated reading it. Many mothers really are just like that, strong, nurturing, amazingly wonderful.

although my mom let me down so many times
I realize she's just another broken spirit
I do love her and respect her in some way

I envy you. It's a beautiful life when you've had a good mother.
She sounds like a great lady!
