Inside the outer shell, you will find a lonely little girl stricken by sorrow screaming to be cuddled, to be loved, and doted upon.
She is struggling miserably to have her hair stroked again to be held and consoled. She is lost in the meandering roads of life looking for her identity. She seems to have lost her direction and needs approval for every little thing.
She has lost sight of that guiding light that told her how to be a woman and a mother.
She is, in fact, looking for her own mother, the guiding star of her life.
The one who was supposed to protect her, and show her the difference between right and wrong. The woman who gave her a lifetime of knowledge and taught her everything from baking apple pies to write and sing. This light that shone brightly on her life’s path is now no more.
There is an empty feeling of loneliness experienced by motherless daughters. This feeling cannot be overcome by anybody or anything be it a man, a friend, a hobby, or work.
There is a continuous search for something to hold on to that will help us fight this unending grief and pain. It does not go away. It keeps hitting us like waves. There are too many happy memories, too many life lessons learned from that woman who was like that big oak tree whose branches covered her children under her loving and protective shadow.
