LJ HOLMES PRESENTS: THE FORGET ME NOTS
Death never comes at a comfortble time.
I've spoken to those who knew for years their loved one was dying, still when the actual passing comes,
their grief is as overwhelming and beyond anything they could have ever imagined preparing for. Those who are
blindsided without
warning, do they have it
harder, or perhaps
easier because of not being able to wallow in the prolonged
misery of watching a loved one fade from the grip they held upon life?
Is it easier to deal with the permenance of loss if you are young with the world ahead of you, or harder now that you know life in truly
NOT infinite.
Sara is 20 and entering that scary world of
higher education, when her mother
dies. The days pass in the blur so many have spoken of. She hadn't understood their meaning, until now.
The gravesight had nearly undone her, How she'd managed to keep that tenuous grip on her screams at the unfairness of this, she could never say.
She didn't see herself as strong, though everyone else bandied that word around in
hushed tones when she'd walk by.
Heroes are strong,
not a daughter this close to throwing herself to the ground and
bawling like a baby.
They all say she needs
companionship...but in truth she wanted them to
leave. Only then would she let down that lest tendril of her guard and truly react to her
mother's
death.
Alone in your grief, what if you learn your mother
is not the mother you knew her to be?
What if you find a treasure that opens up a place
in your self shocked to learn your mother possessed secrets,
secrets that change the core of the woman you called
Mom? How will you come to term with learning your mother had a
story long before the story that you inhabited
beside her?
