Mum used to recite, "Only a true friend shows you a mirror.".
The one above says, "True words aren´t always nice. Nice words aren´t always true.".
She´d loved this and I´m sad I cannot present her with this cool piece of art, so similar to ours - of the making, wooden planks - in the "hall":
Shoot. At times I really miss her.
And her words.
At the same time I´m glad she gave me those words, certainly.
To you, Mum.
I´m kinda coming to terms with the loss.
At times.

I know how much you miss your mum Iris, I'm the same. There are just so many things it would be nice to share with them.
Thank you, Grace. At least I´ve reached acceptance, I guess.
Lovely words - both what your Mom used to say and the wooden plank ones.
Don't believe my mother ever spoke much. But when she die, you'd better believed her children listened. :-)
