I am tired

Of mother's day. There is nothing like having it shoved in your face for a month, that your mother is dead. You can't go in a store, or even listen to the radio without having it crammed down your throat.

I am sick of the struggle not to break into tears in the middle of the grocery store, or just driving down the road to feed the horses.

I am sick and tired of the commercialism of it all. Damn. If your mother is still alive, go see her, and tell her that you love her. Pick some dandelions and put a ribbon around them. If you can't go see her, call or even write a letter. She will take it out many times to read again how much you love her. Do it now. Don't wait. Some day, you too will be tired of hearing about mother's day.....
