To post or not to post

For some time now I've heard about blogs and wondered what on earth they were.  In the last two years I've discovered the answer and have been intrigued.   What exactly do people post on blogs? Here's my humble attempt to put emotions into words and I hope someone else does the same.  It'd be pretty lonely here otherwise. 

Tomorrow is my 54th birthday and also marks the first anniversary of my mother's passing to a better world.   Finally her body is pain free, her mind can rest and her soul can be peacefully in the arms of her youngest son whom she lost 29 years ago.   Seems like such a long time.  But to a mother's heart it was yesterday.   At the age of 46, when most women are rediscovering themselves, mi mama lost her boy of 19, never to recover emotionally from this blow.   Her spirit lost, her body crumbling year after year.

This post is a tribute to the bravest woman I know, to the woman whose image I try to live up to, to the source of strength and comfort in my life.   Here or in heaven, I feel her with every fiber of my being and know that she is right beside me, egging me on, challenging me to challenge myself and has her hand over my head, caressing my fears and pain away. 

Te quiero mamita, descansa en paz al fin mi corazon.   I will always be my mother's daughter.
