Mother's Day - Simply Special
Once a year a day is set aside for Mother. But Mom can be Granny, Aunt, Stepmother, Sister, and anyone else who was in your teens and influenced what you are today.
Stores and shops are full of ideas for gifts, food, cards, and "items" to celebrate this special day. However, as I am a mother, grandmother, aunt, etc. and all of the above, gifts and ages have passed. Some gifts are very special and some you remember and appreciate. Gifts that are truly part of your heart are those that bring memories, memories of the past and the good years you shared, and "details" that you think no one will ever remember.
Let me just say - I kept every gift, card, and photo of my special day with my special people. It’s all rooted in my heart and with today’s special and global needs, today’s Mother’s Day gifts are unique in a unique way.
This year the "details" are more important than ever. They are not just feelings, but they are important for both the giver and the receiver. 2021 is a calendar year that draws on what is most important in life, values that no one can buy or throw away. They are more open, honest, and more important than ever before.
This year Mother's Day gifts are truly invaluable and invaluable. They only call for time, emotions, feelings, love and more love. This year when this special day begins, any touch is most welcome with feelings that have been hidden for a long time - because everyone has been busy, very involved, and yes, striving to do everything for everyone.
On this Mother's Day, give a gift of "mine and you." Identify a special day, event, meal, season, holiday, personal time spent together, or just a "moment" that was so special you should have a star named after it. That moment of a bright star or event can be engraved on a stone with a picture, color (flowers, dress, place, or time. The old saying "in detail" means this year's Mother's Day.
Many have lost loved ones due to illness, many have not been with us for a long time, however, this is their day - their special time of touch, kissing, and respect. It is very easy - compare the object with the thought - yet that little act will be a good memory for the recipient but will give the "donor" something that they can keep in their hearts forever.
This special gift can be the color of a dress, a bouquet of flowers, a face that you have forgotten over time, a place that you may not have, or a food that you know you will not be able to repeat. because it just won't taste the same. Instead of what is missing, enter the details. Write, photograph, copy, or return to any designated area. Thinking and effort will always prevail over beauty and mass production. Put things in a box, put them on paper, or create something that will always be remembered as that special moment together. Grandmother's pinafore, mother's dress always looked good, spices that made you feel good about the holidays, a time in history that can never be recalled but is best remembered.
This year, leave the mall, restaurant, or show tickets, and enter "me and you." In our minds, time is now more precious than ever, the surviving person is part of the truth of your heart, and those who have passed away will feel your love, your pain and your need to remember, share, and never forget.
Mother's Day 2021 - makes it easy - just you - and that will be a blessing we can all share.
