thx yall..appreciate it

My dear mom told me when I visited with her last november
"Iam ready to go home..I am tired of hurting"..I,selfishly, told her that it would be ok and she would feel better soon... now looking back,I realized that she was preparing me to "grieve,but not grieve for her"/"to be sad that she was gone/but happy she was in her heavenly home".....
so even though my heart is torn and aching,I am at peace in my soul that she is resting peacefully in her eternal home..and I will see her again someday!!
