Where I come from originates from my mother, sister, and daughter.
My mom is unassuming and quiet. When she laughs, it is memorable. She always encourages me to look for the best in others, especially when I find it difficult. She’s taught me the importance of adjusting to less and the power a homemade meal can carry.
With my sister, there is an ease that feels natural. She knows and gets me. I’ve learned through her to laugh a little more, to not reach the worst conclusion, and to realize that imperfection is enough. She’s my connection to a past that only we both know.
My little girl, for the last seven years, has offered me so much unconditional love. Her ability to forgive, to laugh with abandon, and her constant wonder about the world helps me strive to become a better person.
These are the ladies in my life. This is where I come from.
Happy Mother’s Day to all of you.
Happy Mother’s Day my friend! xoxo
What love and beauty you come from! Happy Mother’s Day, Rudri!
Beautiful. Don’t you love the connections with women in our lives? I find such peace and love from the strong women who hold my family together. Happy Mother’s Day to you too!
Lovely – what a family of special women! It is nice that you have your own sisterhood. I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day, Rudri 🙂
