What’s the word hummingbird ?
I really miss my Mom. Her name was Ann Elizabeth. She was the dearest woman I have ever known. I miss her gentle ways, strong ways and nurturing heart. always seeming to ‘know’ and to ‘understand’ what was up. She was a ‘seer’ on land, she had ‘ether wisdom’.
An Aquarius, like Gabriel, my eldest son, also a pure empathetic being, hung on for a good year after his death. and I’m sure that wasn’t the time in her life she’d like to remember.
She was such a positive soul, (it wasn’t always this way… in the early days growing up and at times our differences were challenging), …years of acceptance and wisdom turned her into a peace maker, (maybe me too), always somehow it seemed brighter to be with her. I’m sure my years as a rebel were difficult and yet somehow I could always come back to the source, she’d be there and I always felt uplifted by her. wasn’t that she would necessarily say the ‘right’ thing or the ‘best’ thing, I think now it was her energetic knowing and deep compassion.
I really miss her. At times I imagine that she hears my heart. I sure miss hers.
Last month, one day I was vacuuming and it happened to be one of those moments of real longing for her, and suddenly I came across one of her precious handwritten notes on stationary I had given to her from a previous Birthday (each stationary card had the words embossed in gold; “what’s the word hummingbird”) she had a way with the handwritten word that went right to the truth. She told me “…this Love is forever.”
who knows ?
I think it has taken me this long to say this human being was one of the dearest kindest and most thoughtful person one could hope to meet in a lifetime, let alone get to be her youngest daughter.
I’m lucky.
