Happy Mother’s Day

As in the image of the goddess Durga, women everywhere need to celebrate their strengths and gifts. Mother’s day, like any other holiday, means commitment, gratitude and obligation. For those blessed with a good enough mother, say thank you. For people who survived without one, say thank you to yourself and to others who made it possible for you to survive and thrive- your friends, relatives, therapists,  lovers, especially your children. For children missing mothers, mothers missing children- I wish the world’s heart.
