I hate the fact that I can't forget today is the anniversary of my mom's death,
since I prefer to focus on the wonderful totality of her life, rather than the
sad moment it ended. And this year the occasion comes with an additional strange
realization. My mom was 20 when she had me, and she died 21 years ago today. So,
recalling a Tommy Lee Jones monologue from No Country for Old Men, I am
now older than she ever got to be. Just a little added heaviness for me on what
was already a heavy day.

Follow-up
I need to visit my mothers grave. I was gone from the US for only 5 years before she passed. I was in a bad financial way back then and could not even remotely fly back to visit. It’s on the agenda if I ever fly back.
Sorry to hear it Blue. My sympathies.
