I just noticed that before we knew what we had in common, I posted to you on the Grief forum. Isn't that another odd coincidence? Emmy

Thanks for the heads up. I very seldom go on the Grief Forum.
My mom was quite a lesson for me.
I think I was quite hard for her.
Life deals it out and sometimes you get a good hand..when I was born I had a difficult
time but now since it has become my life, I am having fun.
I would love to chat with you on the particulars. I have an e-mail you could post to?
jainarayan108@adelphia.net
I hope to hear from you on this site?
Jai

> Would you tell us about your mom? Mother's Day is also not my favorite...ugh. Spring means it's coming up. Crud. Dang those Hallmark commercials. Emmy
*My mom could fill a book.
She was so big in her personality. She was an open woman and so intelligent.
I guess I would love you to know was she was real hard.
I survived her.
She had a very hard time giving birth to my older sister (mom and baby almost died in birth) and then a few precious months later she was pregnant again with me.
She lost it.I guess if you believe in people being able to decide when and where we are born. I guess it was my decision???? I am unclear why I would choose to be born at that time???
So my mother and I began our connection with a very difficult beginning and it really ended up with a truce. We ended up being able to tollerate eachother... how is that love???
I never felt easy with her, I never felt the support that some feel from their mothers, I never got the love...the sweet love.
My mothers milk was poison for me.
I searched for a mother all my life. I spent many an hour praying and crying. I had an apparition that the goddess appeard to me. She reached her hand down to me and it was filled with light. She was reaching my hand and I held hers till I woke up with the feeling of such joy.....I just never had a mother love me before.
I was in so much need all my life.
I guess you may understand this story and be able to echo it in your life.
Am I wrong?
thanks for asking.
I really appreciate you.

Jai - I'll email you about my mom. Too hard to publicly detail her life. Just enough to say - growing up with a seriously mentally ill mom is a hard road to walk. As a child, of course I didn't understand. Her depression looked like rejection and felt like abandonment. To a child, when Schizophrenia is affecting your mom, it's truly a living a nightmare. Her hospitalizations were frequent and devastating.
I'm also gald we met. Thank you for giving me your email address. Emmy

Jai - You are always so supportive of the people here. Your heart is warm and open. Considering what you've been through in your life - well, a lot of people would be closed off, cold, even brutal. You've managed to get through all those struggles, and yet you have remained the way we are born - with your original goodness. You are kind, and sweet, and gentle.
I feel honored to have met you!
Emmy
