Thank you so much. I have mostly forgiven myself, but you know how there are moments when we start replaying memories in our minds—things we've done or haven't done, ways we may have hurt others, or wrongs we've committed. Sometimes, during those times, I remind myself that not visiting her was trauma speaking, and thankfully, I've mostly moved past it, except for when I start feeling depressed. I have a wonderful "family" in my Creative Work Hour friends, and I still have many good memories of her. I guess I was a mama’s boy, lol!
Forty-seven is such a young age for your mom to have passed away, and I am truly sorry you lost her when you were so young.
Good to hear you have peace with it (at leat, most of the times).
47 is way too young, but luckily I was old enough to have memories of her. Not everyone an say that.
Have a great Sunday.
