Happy Mother's Day. And let's forget about the world's ugliness until tomorrow.
Edited on Sun May-08-11 01:13 PM by Cyrano
For all moms, I hope you're being fully loved and appreciated today.

For those spending time with your moms today, love and appreciate them as much as possible.

The rottenness in this world will still be here tomorrow. But let go of it for one day. Let love be your primary emotion.

And for those of you who have lost your moms, as I have, that doesn't mean that the love stops. There are a dozen red roses on the table today, because my mom's presence is always with me.

Let go of your anger at this world for this one day. I have.

1. What a beautiful sentiment...
I agree...love is the primary emotion, esp. today. Just think how great our world could be if love were the primary emotion every day...

*sigh*

Recommended.

2. There are poor mothers and children whose homes were destroyed in Tuscaloosa. Will NOT put it aside.

Instead, how about using today to read the Original Proclamation of Mother's Day,

and then read this thread, and do a bit of writing for *these* mothers and their children?
