Today is Mother’s Day for some of us. I am sharing a beautiful camellia bloom from my Dad’s yard. I took this photo on my last trip to his home after he passed.
My Mother died when I was 14. I have no photos of her flowers unfortunately. But I am sharing this beautiful bloom with raindrops from my Dad’s yard in memory of my beautiful Mother.
Hopefully they are reunited now, somewhere out there. And I will see them all again on day. My hope and belief. And of course I will always and forever be Dustin’s Mom.
Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers, sisters and aunts out there.
No matter how much suffering you went through, you never wanted to let go of those memories. ~Haruki Murakami

That is just beautiful. Both the shot and the post. Happy Mother’s Day!
One of my favorites from that last visit at his home, without him. Planning to get a camellia tree for my yard. Would love to have transplanted his, but it was about 50 years old probably. He had several trees. I hope your Mother’s day was great!
The guys took me on a hike, and guess what? I took tons of photos. lol. Thank you Carol.
Dustin was with you yesterday all day I do believe. Love the photo!
I felt him with me for sure, thank you for saying his name. It helps. 🙂
We are the compilation of our memories, our thoughts, and our dreams. I know, as my wife lost her mother ten years ago, that losing your mother is painful. But the honor you’ve shared is a great memory!
Sorry your wife lost her mother as well. It is so hard living without your parents and your child of course. And it has made me doubt many things I have always believed in. But somehow we find a way to keep going. It is what they would have wanted. And they are always with us.
Doubt is one thing all of us have. we do, as you said find a way to keep pushing on
We have two choices and I have decided to survive.
I have a really good friend who says today is the first day. Tomorrow is the goal!
That is a good one, thanks!
OOO Corel DM! Welcome me Back, I am Back

I’m a little late with the wishes but… I wish you all your days to be happy! I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s day.
No problem, I always like to hear Mother’s day wishes my friend. And you as well. Thank you!

It was beautiful, thanks so much.
Such a lovely white flower! Happy Mothers Day! Memories are part of our lives that is worth keeping. I have some bad memories that I want to keep. Because of these memories, I can truly appreciate what I currently have.
I love these blooms, with I had a tree in my yard. Maybe one day. Yes, memories are what keep me going, no doubt. Things we have been through make us who we are today. Thank you Sharon for sharing your kind words.
Sadly losing your mother Carol is the most important thing she actually has in a better place?????????????????????????
Do you really believe that? I wish she was still here with me. But life goes on and maybe I will see her one day.
I really think so, and if you allow me to say that Happy Mother’s Day so that Carol and every mother????????
