Today it is Mother´s Day in Spain and I am sending love to anyone who finds this day difficult.
Mother´s Day can be complex
Plenty of reasons why Mother´s Day can be a complex day.
Maybe you lost a child.
Maybe you longed to be a mum, but you never met the right partner.
Maybe you couldn´t get pregnant, due to physical or infertility reasons.
Maybe your mother was a narcissist and for your wellbeing had to cut all contact.
Maybe you were abandoned, given up for adoption.
Maybe you lost your mum.
Maybe a child or your children are no longer in your life.
Whatever the reason is....
....I am sending love to:
those loving mothers
those who lost a child
those who are abandoned
those who are childless not by choice
all fur-ball mums
those who are struggling with motherhood
those going through infertility
those who lost their children
those who lost their mother
those who no longer have a mother
those who never had a mother
those who have a complex mother relationship
The complexity of Mother´s Day
Mother´s Day can leave you feel lonely, heavy or sad, more than you would have expected to feel. There is no right or wrong here.
Mother´s Day might be a shit day. Allow yourself to grieve, feel angry, immensely sad, hurt. Allow your feelings to be. Allow tears to flow. It is all okay.
All your feelings are valid
You feel what you feel and all your feelings are valid. Just know that if it feels complex, for whatever reason, you are not alone.
Take good care of yourself today.
Be kind to yourself.
Go easy on yourself.
Sending you love 💗

P.S. I always wanted to have a family. I just never met the right guy. When I met my partner, I was already in my forties and no longer interested in starting a family. Trust me, I have grieved. I am at peace with being childless. I am an aunt and I am a cat mum.
