Yet, she could not pull up the number of the address in her memory.
She paused. She waited. She breathed.
She realized the card was meant for her.
Not for her mother.
No matter how much or how little our mothers were able to give,
remember that childhood was only the first stretch of the road.
It's not too late to be mothered from within!
Now is the perfect time to step fully into the mother role; the role of mothering yourself.
As you address yourself with more patience, kindness, and
love, you will notice that you attract different kinds
of people who express a mothering style of caring and interest.
That's how it works.
Your biological mother is your history.
You are your own mother today and for the rest of your life.
Start by listening to how you speak to yourself. If you are harsh and unforgiving, understand
that this is the
voice of your biological mother.
The compassion and sweetness of your own voice needs to be cultivated and practiced.
