Thinking of all the women connected to the journey of motherhood, those holding their babies, those longing to be mothers, those who mother in ways beyond biology, those navigating loss, and those carrying the love of mothers no longer here.
Motherhood holds so many layers - love, grief, becoming, nurturing, remembering, and letting go.
And perhaps this is something we are not meant to honour only once a year, but to hold in our awareness always. The essence of mothering -
deep nurturance, compassion, presence and care is something this planet needs more than ever at this time in history.
As I reflect on motherhood, with my children no longer little but growing into young adults, my heart feels so full watching who they are becoming, with such deep gratitude for the privilege of playing this role in their lives and and the gratitude for my own mother’s unconditional love which shaped me to be the mother I am today 💛
