TODAY I REMEMBER
Today is my mother’s birthday.
Last year she was still here.
This year, she is not.
It’s the first time I honour her day without her prescence.
Grief is strange.
It’s heavy and soft at the same time.
Some days it feels like an open wound,
others like a quiet room inside the heart
where memories glow instead of hurt.
I miss her.
Her voice.
Her warmth.
Her way of always knowing what I didn’t have the words for yet.
But I also feel her in other ways now —
In the forest light,
in the way I breathe when I need grounding,
in the strength I didn’t know I had until life asked me to use it.
So today I celebrate her.
The woman who shaped me.
The woman who still walks with me,
just differently.
For anyone who is missing someone today
-I’m with you.
❤️
