Former LBH'S have said the loneliness passes, once you get through the grieving stages. Every day will not be a repeat of today.
Do you really want to help yourself get out of the funk today? Make some elderly mother feel better today. Maybe a mother who has a son/daughter in the military, or a mother who is in the nursing home and forgotten. Know who really feels like a misfit on this day? The woman who was not blessed with a child. And a real challenge would be a mother who has lost her only child. To recognize these precious ladies can mean so much to them. Just a minute or two of your time could lift their hearts and believe someone cares.
There are many people hurting today who cannot celebrate with their mother. But you know what we can do? We can adopt a mom for this one day, at least, to give her a little special attention.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
