my dad passed away when i was in my late 20s.
i still miss him.
at times, i behave like he's still around.
i still try to please him, to make him proud, to follow the example that he set forth.
now is the time to remember all the good things your mom did.
and you don't have to put up with the stuff that annoyed you.
no matter how sad you are,
there are people out there just like you.
you will them. they will find you.
and you will deal with your lives in your own way.
sounds like you already know to keep living.
even thought she's gone,
you can still make her proud.
go on now.. git out there and do it.
