” I was blessed with a wonderful mother, and a day doesn’t go by that I don’t miss her. The 7th anniversary of her death is coming up, and it’s still very hard.”
Although I had a sometimes contentious relationship with both my parents during various periods of my life, I miss them all the time. I’d give anything to have them nearby again, have a visit with them, to hold their hands, just to see their faces and hear their voices. To do some little thing for them. To sit and catch up on all that has happened in the years since they passed. To talk about our family and their lives. Their deaths were the hardest things I’ve ever experienced. My heart breaks for people who are losing or have lost a parent. I know the pain all too well, and can only empathize with their loss.
DENTON! Just who I was looking for last night (nh). About 9:30pm, I happened upon two oversized loads on Atlantic Avenue (also nh). The trucks were escorted by SUVs with flashing lights. I have never seen such enormous pieces (nh) of steel, each one was like its own trestle bridge. I’ve been seeing a lot of these loads lately (nh), and I thought you might have some insight into what they might be or where they might be going. Any chance they’re going through Brooklyn to go to Ground Zero?
“but sometimes the less family members you have the better? you can always look at it that way.”
Actually, while the timing of the comment was poor, I couldn’t agree more. And being a mother involves more than giving birth, imo. Anyone can do that.
What did that guy say in ‘Boys in the Hood’? ‘Anybody can have a kid, but it takes a real man to be a father’.
i didnt say it was a good thing that anyone died, dont twist it like that. i just think people should look to the bright side about horrible situations. and yes less family members = a good thing. im a firm believer in that.
losing a mother is huge. even if relationship with mother is so so, it’s still a huge loss when one thinks about she carried your ass in her womb for 9 months and birthed you. raising you is a plus but giving you life is something we owe our mothers forever.
condolences to my Asian-looking brother Legion. Hang in there and this is when having mini-me’s give you joy of life

Sincere sympathy, Legion.
CGar, please also pass my condolences on to Legion regarding his Mom.
Good going, Rob. You continue to prove you’re an insensitive jackass.
“Apparently women are already going topless on one end of the beach.”
Seldom do the ones who should go topless go topless.

“I have a weltanschauung.”
I used to get those in 7th grade and would have to walk around carrying my backpack in front of me.
