All my life I have tried to be different from her. There have been so many decisions in my life which I have consciously taken, not to end up like her.
I hate it when she looks at me expecting to see a bit of her in me…I hate it when I look at my reflection and see her…
Because deep down, I know I will never be like her… I will never be able take the cruel blows of life so determinedly as she has… I will never be able to love life as passionately as she has… I will never be able to make the mistakes that she has made… I will never be able to learn from those mistakes as she has…
Because she has given me so much that I grudge her her generosity…
Today in reterospect I can safely say that I want to be my mother…my identity lies firmly and happily on the fact that I am my mothers son…
This is for u mom, the grande dame of my life….
She turns 52 today…

Maybe i shouldnt be so afraid of The Blog. With great trepidation i clicked on the link today, dreading the emotions that may lie on the other side. But that was just so heartwarming.
i always used to think that... a man never sees all that his mother has been to him till it's too late to let her know ...
i am glad that you have proven me wrong....
but by the way..i hope the post is only for "us"..
have you written the same note to her personally?
