    ... that's one good reason to visit this forum. It's not just about a virtuos game, it's also about people who care about virtues. And this means: caring about others.
    And for a lot of reasons I am happy to read about the truth, that love is all around us ...
    And in best case inside us, waiting for sharing it all time, telling us the most important truth:
    ... love is all you need...
    May this love of your mother leading you through your further life...
    Thank you for sharing her picture with us, giving us a great flow of love she still seems to represent :)
    Knowing such persons is one of the greatest gifts for our whole life... one thing I also learned from my mother...

    I'm sorry for your loss. My condelences. My prayers and thoughts will be with you and your family.

    FYI - I love that picture and your mom is awesome for sporting a shirt like that. She's probably rocking it right now in the next life.

    Once again I want to thank everyone for all your words of comfort. I honestly need them. I'm not used to being a part of such a loving community, so it's hard for me to share these personal things. But my mom was...mom. She's gone now and I am so broken up over how she suffered the last five mouths I don't know what to do with all of it. I am so angry that MY MOM suffered, so relieved that she is at peace, so much the little child who will never see *mommy* again.

    This is the human condition, trying to process loss and heartache - to put a label on it or ride the wave.

    My mom was far from perfect. She made terrible mistakes. But she taught me to own up to my own mistakes and to never think that my **** didn't stink. She put too many burdens on me at too young an age, but because she taught me to forgive, I never held her mistakes against her. We grew up poor. In fact, she was from the tenements in East Harlem New York. Poor, but rich at the same time. Part of her legacy to me was to never put too much stock in acquiring *things* or hoarding money. The really valuable things in life - like watching monarch butterflies migrate past our kitchen window, looking for rainbows in the sky, feeding ducks at the zoo - THOSE things were the important parts of life. To stop and smell the roses (though in my case, I stopped to pick dandelions for her. She never cared they were weeds, she put them in water and loved them for the innocent gift they were). We both listened to the beat of a different drum and laughed as much as possible.

    She was a firecracker Puerto Rican woman who was liberated in her own soul long before before that became fashionable. And I am telling you this because she was my mom and I loved her. I wish I could have shared her with you under better circumstances.

    Come rest on my shoulder and I will hum a melody to soothe your spirit.
    Sob softly as we all share the burden of your loss and weep silently into the night.
    Rest now sweet princess knowing your mom's love will comfort you into eternity.

    Sorry to hear re your loss; all the best in your times of mourning and living.

    Your mother seemed to be a wonderful person; much strength in continuing with what she has imparted to you. Some think it is monuments that leave an impression for the future but it is a persons example that truly resonates and leaves something to posterity.
