For The Quiet Kind Of Comfort

Mom, I was thinking about those quiet ordinary moments with you where nothing big was happening, but I still knew I was cared for. Just being at home, life moving around us, and that calm feeling of not having to earn my place anywhere.

Now that I am older, I understand how much that kind of peace matters. You gave me a steady kind of love that did not always need a big moment to prove itself. It was just there, and it helped me feel safe in my own life.

I hope today is gentle with you as you keep healing, and I hope you feel surrounded by the same comfort you have given me for so long. I love you, Mom.
