HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
All creative people can relate to the way good mothers direct and cultivate the lives of those in their charge.
When mothers have children, they have an idea of the type of little human being they would like to develop and nurture….. the kind of person they would like to see in a future world. The kind of man or women they would like to know and associate with. And it all begins with the multitude of decisions they make every single day. In big ways and small, mothers make decisions that will affect their children both immediately and in the future. Mothers are the “Master Creators”.
There are also those who are motherly by nature and shower this love on pets, friends, relatives or perhaps even a meaningful project etc… are all “Master Creators” and motherliness is a wonderful trait.
So I wish all of you Master Creators, a very happy Mothers day.
Quotes
“Mama was my greatest teacher, a teacher of compassion, love and fearlessness. If love is sweet as a flower, then my mother is that sweet flower of love. STEVIE WONDER
“I remember my mother’s prayers and they have always followed me. they have clung to me all my life”. ABRAHAM LINCOLN
MOTHER EARTH
Remember too that WE ALL HAVE THE VERY SAME MOTHER; she’s called Mother Earth.
This is “How Deep Is Your Love”
Your mother is always with you… She’s the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street. She’s the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks. She’s the cool hand on your brow when you’re not well.
Be well all…. and stay strong.
As always, I am musically yours, Gregory
