Letter to My Children - September, 2011

I think, sometimes, my dear children, that you forget who you are talking to at times. 

Yes, we are friends in many ways, but I will always be your MOTHER. 

I will ALWAYS be concerned with your well being.

I will ALWAYS try to tend a wound. 

I will ALWAYS give advice - you are free to take it or leave it, but by god you will hear it. 

I will ALWAYS try to "make it better", by action, word or even thoughts if that's all I can do, because along with profound joy, you have no idea how much heartbreak it is for me to just be a spectator in the stands and watch my children play their own game of life - through 9 other peoples up and downs - I get to experience them ALL in my heart. 

I will ALWAYS remind you all to STAY SAFE. I don't care if you think I'm accusing you of being stupid. I'm not. I just genuinely want to remind all of you every time you leave here to remember your safety. 

I will ALWAYS be honest with you - even if it's not want you want to hear, because that's who I am. 

I will ALWAYS be REAL with you - because I want you to be the same with me. 

I will ALWAYS be a part of your life - because I AM - and so ARE YOU. Life or death is of no consequence in that matter. 

I will ALWAYS want the best for you, and have - and will continue to support any means to that end - even when it means changing a belief system to accommodate it. 

I will ALWAYS be proud of you NO MATTER WHAT - because just living your lives the way you are - on the edge, adventurously, and with gusto - takes tremendous courage and fortitude in this culture - and
I will ALWAYS BELIEVE that my kids- every one of them - will be total successes as defined by themselves and me - and that is a belief no one can take away from me. 

I will ALWAYS love you with a Universal love that is yet undefined in it's power and virtue.

Things you just needed to know.


Namaste'.................(look it up!)


Your Mother - Sally
