Hugs, kisses, praise don’t come easily to us. Our family practices a stoic, unspoken love. So how do three daughters tell a dying mother how much we adore her? She was turning 92. A Google search revealed that Jackie Kennedy, Audrey Hepburn, Princess Grace and Anne Frank were born the same year as mother. On a card with their pictures, we wrote: “1929 was a good year for producing some elegant, inspiring, strong and classy women … We’re proud one of them belongs to us!” Our mother passed peacefully, days after her birthday. Without embarrassing her, we expressed our love. — Indu Balachandran

This post reminds me to find ways to be creative, and love on those who need love, as some individuals don’t know how to show love as they never been authentically taught it. Those flowers are beautiful, and was a good reminder for me to send a few bouquets to those in my life who need a little extra attention and love.
