Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love. ~ Mother Teresa

 As Mother’s Day approaches, the desire to thank my own mother and all other mom’s that I know surges in my heart. This feeling is one of love and gratitude for all that these many women have shared. They may not all be mothers by the very simplistic definition of having given birth, and in fact one very special woman who touched my life never had any children of her own, but she most definitely represented all that one would want from a mom, and that is love. Love is the greatest force we have on our planet. We are all love and will return to love, but we often get lost on our way. It is in keeping with this spirit of love that I wish all women everywhere a wonderful and blessed Mother’s Day. We may not all be famous, but we can do so much to help balance the universe if we just continue to spread our love, it is all there is in the end. We may lust after material things, our vanity as to beauty, wish away our aging bodies, and on and on, but we were all born on this planet of love and if we can remember to get back to that place what a wonderful world it could be. So take a moment and thank a woman for all that she may have done for you in your life. My own list is lengthy, and my heart is full. I hope your own heart is full as well, and if it isn’t try for a moment to think of some special woman who may have bestowed a little love and compassion upon you and wish them a prayer of peace. Send up that energy to our planet for healing, she needs it as well.
