Shared Loneliness

We were all doing the same: an act of love, even if solitary. We were all trying our best, to be good mothers and fathers and grandparents.

My heart exploded, and there were bursts of naches, happiness, love and excitement flowing everywhere.

Fear has kept me on my toes. Love has kept me walking.

He, no matter how young, deserves respect and space to be himself. Let him kick.

You would expect that with so much happiness coming from motherhood, Sadness wouldn’t be a regular presence. But it is.
