The Love by which I judge

Original draft:
May 10th, 2007

By; Eric Kinkel

This year will be a particularly difficult Mother’s Day as it has been a very short four and a half months since my mother passed away on December 26th, 2006. A solitaire trip to the cemetery on Sunday, the tears will fall heavy as I seek alone time with my mom. It will surely remind me of the void in my life.

This week, as I hear all the radio and T.V. ads about Mother's Day, they remind me of the impending day to celebrate the great symbiotic love between a mother and a sibling, in turn I will be concurrently reminded of my recent loss.

It is important to note that my mother’s love is the standard by which I judge all love.

In those living years, your mothers physical being, her greeting, her smile, her warmth and understanding comes over you with such pleasant magnetism it can easily be taken for granted. I remember everything about my mother and my life with her. These very memories carry me through the low times in my life… they never die, they just get better !.

I had much time to prepare for my mothers departure, yet her physical death still remains and uneasy memory. I continue to come to grips with those moments and try to remember that she would have preferred I focus my efforts on simply living my life with out such regret and to continue to be the unique individual she taught me to be.

This Mothers day celebrate your Mother’s life whether she is with you or not. Use the strength and symbiosis attributed by your mother, to pass on what ever goodness and mercy you can.
