Thank you for sharing. I feel so seen. I also lost my mum about a year ago and I find myself asking questions. Is she happy there? Is she having fun?
Especially on her birthday, I wondered did they have cake? Did anyone sing for her? Did she have fun? Does she know we miss her?
Thank you for showing me my pain is similar to others. It gives me the strength to carry it. A knowing I’m not alone. My pain is not alien. My grief is human and it’s a shared lived experience to live and to die.
I hope your writing makes you feel lighter as it did for me.
My heart aches but also swells with love reading this. I am in awe at how you can string these thoughts and words together into something so tangible and real. The line "Can you still hear me sing ?" still echos in my head. I want to believe that your mom can still hear you wherever she is. Thank you for sharing, Raveena ❤️
i wish you so much comfort and ease while navigating grief… how devastating, especially with one of my favorite songs being abt you wondering who your mother was before the two of you met. i always at first misheard it as, “before your man,” as in, what did marriage and the pursuit of marriage take from you… both are so beautiful, like the way your spirit sparkles in every photo you share 🦋🌙🌷
I feel profound heartache reading this, yet profound enduring love and specificities. It makes think of the quote 'to be loved is to be seen'. Sending so much love to you
Sending all the love I can possibly send to you
