Sunday Song – Flight From The City

Although Mother’s Day was on May 12, 2019, my special poem for Mother’s

‘Your Mother’s Always with You’

was added to the BeZine Project Special Mini Edition for Mother’s Day on May 20, 2019.

This video is a testimony to the strength of a mother. She must have the fortitude and resilience to impart upon her child a confident character in order to let go of her child into the world of whatever may come their way. Yet, she must be there to let them gather strength once again from her quietly warm touch.

A mother’s love is never-ending.

‘Your Mother is always with You’

She’s the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street.

She’s the smell of certain foods you remember.

She’s the flowers that you pick, of the perfume that she wore.

She’s your breath in the air on a cold winter’s day.

She’s the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep,

She’s in your laughter, crystallized in every tear,

She’s the place you came from, your first home.

She’s the map you follow with every step you take.

She’s your first love, your first friend, even your first enemy.

Nothing on earth can separate you,

Not time … Not space … Not even death!

Sunday Song – A Mother’s Love

Walking in the Garden 2018©Isadora DeLaVega

This year, Mother’s Day, is May 13, 2018. It’s the day we celebrate the special women who’ve raised us.

I think everyone would agree that any woman whose raised a child deserves to be recognized everyday.

She’s filled with boundless love and makes enormous sacrifices.

Mothers have arms brimming with comfort and love.

For those of you who are blessed to have your mothers with you,

May your Mother’s Day, with her, be filled with immense joy….!!!!

For those of you have lost your mothers,

May your Mother’s Day be filled with your precious memories of her.

Happy Mother’s Day to All …. !!!

Reflecting on our Mother’s Words

When we reflect on our lives we can’t help but include our thoughts on the one person who’s had the most influence on us:

‘Our Mother.’

She forms the person we’ll be from the beginning of conception. We are who we are because of her.

Despite the way we may feel about her, she is the major player in the formation of our lives.

There are lessons a mother teaches us.

But, it’s always up to us to put them into practice.

It’s always up to us to be in charge of our decisions.

Sometimes, we ruminate and get stuck on what we weren’t given or how we were treated by her.

This shouldn’t matter.

For in the end, if we fail or if we succeed, we should never forget that the final choices are always up to us.

The poem below reflects a Mother’s words eloquently … enjoy Reflection by Secret Garden as you read.

Happy Mother’s Day to all … Isadora 😎

Reflections of a Mother …

I gave you life,  but cannot live it for you.

I can teach you things,  but I cannot make you learn.

I can give you directions,  but I cannot be there to lead you.

I can allow you freedom,  but I cannot account for it.

I can take you to church,  but I cannot make you believe.

I can teach you right from wrong,  but I cannot always decide for you.

I can buy you beautiful clothes,  but I cannot make you beautiful inside.

I can offer you advice,  but I cannot accept it for you.

I can give you love,  but I cannot force it upon you.

I can teach you to share,  but I cannot make you unselfish.

I can teach you respect,  but I cannot force you to show honor.

I can advise you about friends,  but cannot choose them for you.

I can advise you about sex,  but I cannot keep you pure.

I can tell you the facts of life,  but I can’t build your reputation.

I can tell you about drink,  but I can’t say “no” for you.

I can warn you about drugs,  but I can’t prevent you from using them.

I can tell you about lofty goals,  but I can’t achieve them for you.

I can teach you about kindness,  but I can’t force you to be gracious.

I can warn you about sins,  but I cannot make you moral.

I can pray for you,  but I cannot make you walk with God.

I can tell you how to live,  but I cannot give you eternal life.

I can love you with unconditional love all of my life ….. and I will.
