She's so pretty...

My how Mommy's daughters look like her....I wonder if they have a favorite photo of her they'd like to share here with the rest of the world. They do remind me of her whenever I see them. My sons characterize her in their mannerisms and their good hearts. My daughters have good hearts as well. They just happen to have all the accouterments to look like their mother. Mommy's dear friend Heidi Burns says she still cries over Mommy dying. I will meet with her Dec, 23rd to go to the cemetery and have a lunch together to remember her. From Thanksgiving on I am not able to think of anything else but her dying during this time last year. Work helps because I actually do save peoples lives and I can also love them as Baha'u'llah asks me to. I hope next year some of this essential sadness goes away.

Save me.....save mme....from myself mostly....

Mama and I had, and in some respects always will have, redemptive love for each other. It is an aspect not usually embraced in ones thoughts when thinking about one's love for another human being. Still, it isn't a stretch of the imagination to believe that one's love releases another person from so many things. Having love for a spouse releases you from having to play all those "search for someone worthy of my love" games. Mommy and I were very fortunate to fin each other so young.
Should you have thoughts about this topic of 'redemptive' love I should very much enjoy your input.
