A Mother’s Legacy: Remembering My Mother This Mother’s Day

Image
  Today, while sorting through old photographs and yellowed newspaper clippings, I came across my mother’s obituary. She has been gone for 22 years and yet, somehow, I still feel her presence. Obviously not in a way you can touch or see, but in the guidance that still appears when I need it most. It's in the lessons she taught without ever sitting us down for a formal lecture. It’s in the love that never really leaves us, even after someone is gone. Her obituary described her simply as a “homemaker.” Just one word. But anyone who has ever truly known a mother or grandmother understands that the word homemaker barely scratches the surface. Before marrying my father, my mother had an excellent career in publishing. She was intelligent, capable, organized, and professional long before those qualities were ever recognized in an obituary. Like many women of her generation, she stepped away from one career and unknowingly began another, one that would shape an entire family for...

When Connection Isn't Immediate

Image
  A place to sit with the day  This morning, I wrote about my yoga intention of being brave and taking a step forward.  Later in the day, I was reminded that sometimes that step doesn’t lead to where we expect.  There are moments in life when we reach out sincerely, simply hoping for connection and sometimes, nothing comes back right away. There’s a pause, a space that can feel larger than it really is.  In that space, it’s easy to start questioning ourselves.  Did I say the wrong thing? Was the timing off? Should I have done things differently? Our minds can play tricks on us and fill in the blanks far too quickly. But perhaps that space is not ours to carry. Perhaps it just is what it is. A moment that didn’t align. A response that didn’t come. A reminder that it’s not a reflection of our worth, but a reflection of timing, circumstance, or where someone else may be in their own life. So we remind ourselves that we can be kind, respectful, ...

Just Because You Can Doesn’t Mean You Should

Image
A friend visited me for the past two days, and during one of our conversations, we talked about what seems to be a decline in kindness, respect, personal responsibility, and simply trying to be a good person. Sometimes it appears in the smallest ways. A driver lets someone merge into traffic, but there is no wave of thanks. A person holds open a door, and the other person walks through without acknowledging the gesture. These things may seem insignificant, but they reflect how we choose to treat one another. We also talked about the crude remarks Jelly Roll recently made about the President while guest-hosting a late-night talk show. When some people criticized his comments as rude and disrespectful, others defended them by saying he had a First Amendment right to say whatever he wanted. Yes, he had the right to say it. But having the freedom to say something does not automatically make it kind, respectful, responsible, or morally right. Some people will respond that the President has ...
