@That is beautiful,the post,the picture and of course the lilacs which are my favourite flower.I just love the scent.I usually sneak some from a tree that hangs over a sidewalk that I use.Cant get enough of that scent.

How very sweet of you to post this. I lost my Mother last week. I am one of six children. It's different for me because we never ever had a quality mother/daughter relationship. I was the child she focused all her bad feelings toward. I won't go into detail but I now, at 65, am in counseling with depression and PTSD. I feel like I am the just a casualty left behind on a battlefield of trying a lifetime to win her love. I know now I will never have that. It's over. Now I have to figure out how to get through the rest of my life dealing with that emptiness.

@Equuleus , I am sorry for your loss. Your loss is so fresh. I hope time gives you perspective. If this is overwhelming for you, talk to a therapist perhaps. I had a good relationship with my mother but have a sister who is a challenge. I have learned to deal with it. I am one of ten children so I understand a large family dynamic. Your mother is such an important figure in your life. I wish you peace and well being, LM

Thanks. I am in counseling. It's been so long of a time living as I did that I am not sure if I'll ever understand it. But I do wish all those that had a loving mother they are missing peace in knowing what they shared and continue to share through their lives. I do know the emptiness, but in a different way. Peace and love to all of you.
