Hello! How are you doing today? I hope everyone is
having a wonderful week. Today I wanted
to talk about how some of us make it through life without our birth mothers,
but “other mothers”. Maybe she had an
illness, an accident, committed suicide, or abandoned us. If this scenario includes you, how did you
make it through?
When our real mothers
can’t be there for us, we always have a choice to adopt new people in our lives to
fill that void. Fortunately, I found
many women in my life that have helped to fill in at times when I needed someone I
could trust to talk to, someone who listened, and gave sound advice. When certain times of the year roll around
like wedding season, the births of our babies, and the holidays, we may start
to think about how nice it would be to have our real mothers around to fill in
the empty spaces. However, we can remain
thankful to have been blessed with our adopted “other mothers” that can be
there for us when we need them.
When my birth mom left this world, I adopted quite a few “other mothers”, what about you? Do you have “other mothers” too?

Great post dear! I lost my dad late last year, as time moves on I find myself considering others to fill the gap.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your Dad, thanks for sharing and stopping by.
DeleteI wasn’t close to my Mom. I had to find a way to mother myself. Beautiful post and now I have an entire community that’s my family.
ReplyDeleteWow, finding a way to mother yourself may have some unknown advantages though. Glad to hear you found a community you feel comfortable in. Thanks for stopping by.
