This is to mother you....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Disclaimer - the lyric " I will do what your mother didn't do " is not to imply anything against anyone's mother. Instead, I like to think of it more as " I will do what your mother can't or isn't able to do "..... I interpret this song more of a friendship song than a lover song.

Dedicated to all my friends:

This is to mother you

To comfort you and get you through

Through when your nights are lonely,

Through when your dreams are only blue,

This is to mother you.....

This is to be with you,

To hold you and kiss you too,

For when you need me I will do,

what your own mother did not do,

Which is to mother you....

All the pain you have known,

All the violence in your soul,

All the wrong things you have done,

I will take from you when I come....

All mistakes made in distress,

All your unhappiness I will take away

with my kiss, yes, I will give you

tenderness.

For child I am so glad that I found you,

Although, my arms have always been

around you,

Sweet bird, although you didn't see me,

I saw you....

And I am here to mother you -

To comfort you and get you through,

Through when your nights are lonely,

Through when your dreams are blue...

This is to mother you

Light a Candle

Light a Candle - and send positive thoughts out into the universe today.

Mamamormon's Mama is in the hospital and she ( and her family ) can use all the positive energy we can muster up and send their way.

~~~~~~~~

In my religion's tradition, a lit candle symbolizes the special intentions we have in our heart and soul for someone else. It is a visual reminder that we are "concentrating", "focusing", or meditating about someone else or some issue. It need not be a blessed candle although I do buy special candles for this purpose ( check out the hispanic aisle of your grocery store ). I buy them because it helps me remind me that I am especially focusing on something other than trying to add a pleasant fragrance to my home :) Mama and Kahlik have razzed me a bit about my "candles" but they bring me comfort and keep my otherwise scattered brain focused on my special intentions.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Light your candles people!!

Waiting

Friends,

Keep a special friend and her family in your thoughts/prayers.
