12.Mother's Day is beautiful.It is filled with delicate cards and beautiful flowers.But some'will make plans lo ntay home from church this Sunday,to avoid restaurants and most public places where they will be sure to be cheerfully greeted with a"Happy Mother's Day!"because sometimes Mother's Day hurts.
It Hurts for the woman whose teenager is heading down a dark and risky path and while she has tried everything in her power to"save"her child from the pain that road brings,nothing has changed.It hurts for the mother who has a tense relationship with her own duughter and who wishes the day could be with brunch and long talks and laughter.But instead the daughter goes over the last phone call,the cold goodbye,and the deafening silence.
I have an amazing and beautiful mother and enjoy a great relationship with her.I had people to celebrate on this day and I did.But it still hurt,for I didn't respond positively In the holiday.Over time I leared that it was okay to love and honor my mom.I am now feeling better,though still aching over what was lost.
Mother's Day can hurt.It can also be a beuutiful time of joy.I believe there is a way to Honor mothers who find this holiday hard.We can reach out to those we think the day might be hard for.We can send a card or text or email to let them know we're thinking of them.We can't take the hurt away,nor should we try.But we can let them know they aren't forgotten and they are loved important.We can show that we won't let the hurt scare us away or silence us.This Sunday,in the midst of our celebration,Let's be sure to send love to all the mothers in the world.
