My Birthday ...

7/8/2015

In 21 days I turn 60.

Each birthday since my mum died I ponder what she was doing as my birth approached. Did she have time to be present with my impending birth? Was she too busy to enjoy the moment whilst caring for her 2 other children both under 3 years of age? Then I think it doesn't really matter. We were together connected through love. I was warm and cosy in her womb. This was the best cuddle ever.

I know now this connection is more powerful than any human experience, more powerful than any connection in the physical world and transcends life and death. I feel this connection every single day and it brings joy to my heart even though the tears are flowing freely as I write.

I feel you everywhere mum. I feel the warmth of snuggling up in your womb, I feel the warmth of your love and I will continue to talk to you, walk with you, laugh with you, cry with you, write to you and connect with you forever.

I now know there is connection in the afterlife and it can be just as good as it was in life.

Thank you for sharing Judy. I am approaching my 35th birthday in 13 days but more significantly, my first birthday since my mom passed this January 2015. I have struggled with the thought of celebrating when I feel such a deep loss for the one who gave birth to me. Yet I know exactly what you mean as that connection between us is far greater then the tangible flesh. There is not a day that has gone by that I have not thought about her and I enjoy it as I feel it contributes to her daily participation in my life. My tears still flow and although the waves of sorrow are not as frequent or strong, I miss her terribly. I think it is wonderful how you write to and about your mom and I am sure it helps you as well as I can vouch for the empathetic comfort I receive from reading it too. Interestingly, my 3 year old son came up with his own name for my mother, Mum mum.
