Happy Mother’s Day Moms! This special Mother’s Day blog is for you! If you are not a Mom, I would encourage you to read on because even if you aren’t a Mom, you have one.

The picture on this post is called ‘GENERATIONS.’ It is the 5 generations of women in my family taken at my Grandma’s 100th birthday party several years ago.

Moms are pretty amazing when you think about it. If she didn’t (or couldn’t) carry you in her body for 9 month’s to keep you safe and sound until you were born, she stepped in to raise you, and love you no matter what. Even if there were times she didn’t like you very much, she always loved you. Here’s the thing, before your Mom was your Mom she was a baby, a daughter, a little girl, a teenager, a woman. She toddled, scraped her knee, had a pimple or two and probably thought she would NEVER be like her mother. She was a person with challenges and probably went through a lot in her life. Your Mom had hopes, dreams and goals she wanted to achieve. When you came along even if you were a part of her dream life, her life changed and she became first and foremost YOUR MOM.

Honor thy Mother for who she is!

To US she is Mom or Mum or Mommy or Ma but to her friends she is a friend, a woman, a confidant. She giggles & laughs, wonders if she’s doing the right thing and has things she’d like to create. If your Mom is no longer in body, I’ll bet you found out a lot about your Mom the WOMAN after she passed. Mom raised you from her own set of pictures. So whether in your eyes it was the right thing or not, she was and is working on her own growth. It is her job to worry about you and protect you no matter how old you are. Do not threaten her child!

Mother’s Day is the perfect day not only to honor your Mom as “MOM” but to honor your Mom the WOMAN. Take a moment to find out how her life was when she was a little girl…a teenager…a wife or single Mom. What dreams did she have when she was growing up? How about right now? What would your Mom like to do NOW? Your Mom is not just a Mom. She is a very special WOMAN who in many ways lives(ed) her life for YOU whether you want to admit it or not. Get to know her and see her for who she really is. You may be surprised at what you find out! 🙂

To my Grandma Sara aka Mom, GG (Great Grandma), aunt & cousin Sara : Although you are no longer with us, I love you more than words can express! In your eyes I can do no wrong. With the simplicity of a fruit salad and sleep over you showered me with a love that will never end! I love you…a bushel and a peck! A bushel and a peck I love YOU! (Grandma passed on 03/12/11. Her legacy of love is instilled and ever present in our lives. She truly lived life for her children.)

To my Mom aka Viv, Nana, sister, daughter, aunt, mother in Law, artist, chief cook & bottle washer, maker of the perfect ‘burnt chicken’ & gefilte fish 🙂 : Mom you surprise me every day! You are and continue to be an amazing woman who truly lives for her children & grandchildren. Thank you for all you have given and taught to me! I love you with all my heart and I’m honored to be your daughter!

To Moms everywhere HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! For the beautiful woman you ARE and ALL that you do for your children, may the love you give be the love you receive; Today, forever and always!~ Shine your light Debbie

“Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite. Or waiting around for Friday night or waiting perhaps for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil or a better break or a string of pearls or a pair of pants or a wig with curls or another chance. Everyone is just waiting.” ~Dr. Seuss

We wait ‘for our ship to come in’, to meet our soul mate, for things to calm down, for our children to grow up, for our yearly bonus, for the returned phone call or email, for the bus, or for someone else to make a decision so we can make ours. We wait for the economy to get better, or to find the better job or for our vacation days. Funny thing about all this waiting is that we’re all in a hurry yet find ourselves waiting!

Waiting is an interesting concept to explore. In terms of your energy, it implies your energy is in the future or dependant on something (or someone) that’s outside of you before you can move forward. While you are waiting, for whatever reason, your energy, creativity and that part of your awareness is not available to you in the present. In fact, while you are waiting it is possible that your creativity stops altogether!

Take a moment to consider how much of your energy and creativity is caught up in waiting for something else to happen. It may only be in one area of your life you are waiting but it still takes away from how much energy you have to create in other areas as well. Becoming conscious of how much of your energy is not here and now in the present is great information because then you can call it back thus having MORE energy to create with! 🙂

There is great value to having your energy and ability to create. Think of it in terms of having monetary value. How much of your money is out there that you don’t have access to in the present? Wouldn’t you like to use it now for something? Your energy and creativity are so valuable that there is no monetary comparison. YOU are PRICELESS! There is no need to spend your time, attention and energy waiting when all creating happens in the present.

Having conscious awareness of those areas in your life where your energy is tied up and waiting allows you to shift where it is and bring it back to you. So… What are you waiting for? Call back your energy! No time like the present to get that juicy creativity flowing again!~Shine Your Light Debbie
