Mother’s Day is Sunday. Do you have special plans?
The stores are full of balloons, flowers and greeting cards to remind you of the big day. If you’re mother has died it could trigger sad memories. If she’s living, it’s the perfect opportunity to tell her how much you love and appreciate her.
We talk a lot about recovering from grief from death. One huge aspect of that is getting emotionally complete with things you wish had ended different, better, or more. But you don’t have to wait until someone dies to thank them for the positive aspects of your relationship.
Over the course of a lifelong relationship, there’s a big chance there are things you haven’t yet said to your mom.
Is there’s something you’ve always wanted to thank her for, but it never seems like the right time to do so? Have you told her you love her? Did she do something special during your childhood that you always remember?
Tell her!
How many times have you heard someone say the following after their mother died:
“I wish I told her I loved her.”
“I regret not saying goodbye the last time we saw each other.”
“I never thanked her for raising me.”
Mother’s day is a great opportunity to say those things! She will be happy to hear it and you’ll be happy you told her.
In fact, using The Grief Recovery Method on your relationship with a living parent could take your relationship and happiness to new levels. If you’ve thought about attending The Grief Recovery Method Personal Workshop now is your chance.
