Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day! To all mothers, grandmothers, step-mothers, to all those who nurture, and love. This is a day to recognize all of you who have mentored us, supported us, befriended us. Mothering is not just about giving birth, but about birthing a deep love and caring relationship toward another. This may come from an aunt, a sister, a minister, a dear friend; a wonderful woman who has come into our life to walk this journey with us. Sometimes their sacrifice is so huge, we miss the magnitude of your giving. The deepest soul-love I experience is for my son and my grandchildren. I am blessed to have these connections in my life. I thank my mother for bringing forward life's lessons that have propelled my growth forward. Let's also remember Mother Earth, Gaia, as we maintain a consciousness of gratitude. Thank you all for your "motherly" love! Namaste, Judy
