[QUOTE="Steely, post: 433040, member: 3301"] Your mother's fatal flaw was herself. Her own inner demons did not allow her to perform a natural intrinsic act, such as love. I know that you know this on a rational cerebral level, however I don't think your soul believes it as the truth. Your soul is the one that still craves a Mommy, and although your mind can always override your soul in rationale - it cannot override your soul in feeling pain. The only one that can bring your soul healing is you now. Which means saying affirmative positive things to yourself whenever these feelings occur. Talking to yourself when you hurt just like you would talk to your children when they were little and in pain. You will have to become the Mom you never had, yourself, in order for the healing to begin. There are a bunch of books by Louise Hays on healing, and I am reading some of them. They are very good, and they talk about people like you and I who still have shrapnel in our souls. She has some pretty interesting insight on how to heal from it. I am sorry this day also marks the death of your aunts and godmother. Death is immortal in a sense - it has no sense of time - it just always is a dark pocket in our soul. Yes, we can move on, and stop [I]grieving[/I] - but the loss is still always present. Just today I shed a few tears over my sister, missing her, wanting her. When I miss my sister, I feel like I am reaching for an invisible object - I know I want it - but I can never grasp it. For those moments it feels like I am in the dark trying to find something I lost that was so dear to me that I could not live without it - and yet I know it is gone. Many, many hugs - [/QUOTE]
