137: A Mother's Day Message 2021 ( The Daily Experiment)
Hello, my amazing friend!

Coach Christine,
Your Empty Nest Coach




"To my friends who dislike this day because they are a Mother but their family just treats it like any other day: Yes, this happens. Please remember this one day is not the be all and end all to how they show your love. They love you, but they may not show it today. If you are still having a hard time feeling thankful, go back to my first two comments above and try looking at life a bit differently. Then treat yourself today. You are worth it."

Today Iβm sharing something I found that I wrote and posted to Facebook back in 2016 - this was back when I posted on Facebook regularly. So, itβs been a while. I tweaked it a tiny bit and I share it with you today.
To my friends who think of their mother in heaven, today:
Know that your mother lives in you. Sheβs proud of you, and she loves you. Remember those great moments together and I am sending you a hug.
To my friends who think of their child in heaven, today:
I have no words. Love. I send you love.
To my friends who have estranged relationships with their mother or child:
I pray that peace will enter your lives this year - for both of you and that closure and the rekindling of a relationship - if possible and healthy - enters your life. May love win overall. Remember the good times even if they are hard to find.
To my friends who arenβt βMoms:β
I canβt begin to tell you how important you are to me. No matter your age, gender, race or how we know each other, YOU help me to be the mother I am. You listen even when you may not have a clue what Iβm talking about and even when you may not want to hear me talk about my child anymore. You have NO idea how important that is to me and how much it helps me to be a better mother. THANK YOU.
And to my friends who dislike this day because they are a Mother but their family just treats it like any other day:
Yes, this happens. Please remember this one day is not the be all and end all to how they show your love. They love you, but they may not show it today. If you are still having a hard time feeling thankful, go back to my first two comments above and try looking at life a bit differently. Then treat yourself today. You are worth it.
To my friends who love this day because it is all about them and they feel the love from their family:
You are truly blessed. Enjoy every minute. You deserve it.

As I read through that, thereβs probably a few things Iβd tweak even a little more but you get the idea.
Iβll be back tomorrow talking about the topic of shared future goals.
Be sure to check your feed every day for the next week or so for a new episode from me, and DEFINITELY let me know what you think of these new shorter episodes, my empty nest friend.
Donβt you dare forget that You Are Amazing!
Talk tomorrow!
