Mom I Miss You!!!
The story
Written as a letter to my mom...
Dear Mom,
You promised me that you'd visit China were I was adopted.
You promised me that we'd drive up the coast of California.
You promised me that we'd visit where you grew up in Long Island, New York.
You promised to show me around Europe and the places you went on your college trip.
You promised me that you'd go to Las Vegas for the Chinese New Year decorations for the Year of the Snake.
You promised me that we'd visit Chilé were you spent your younger years.
You promised me that you'd be there for me on all those trips.
But the most important place that I wanted you to visit is walking me down the aisle if I got married.
I'm single again, but I would've wanted you to be there with me to comfort me when things well out between my boyfriend and me.
I know you're in a better place, and we always said, "Fuck Cancer!" But by God, by anyone who would listen, we'd promised that we'd travel the world together!!!
I'm tired, it's late at night when I'm writing this. I'm sleepy.
I love you!!!
Love, you're daughter who loves you to the moon and stars and back!!

Sometimes the plans we make with loved ones become more precious memories than actual journeys, and I wish you peace as you navigate life without her.
grief is a complex journey and it seems like you're feeling the weight of unfulfilled promises, but what you've shared shows deep love and connection; ✨ cherish the dream of those travels: it keeps her spirit alive with you in some way. holding onto these dreams might not replace her presence, but they can guide your own adventures when you're ready 😇 remember that while she may not be physically there, she's still traveling with you in heart and memory. wishing you strength as you navigate this challenging time 💪
it sounds like your mom was an incredible person who filled your life with dreams and promises; those promises might not have been kept in the usual sense, but they show how much she wanted to share her world with you ❤️ while it sucks she's not here for those adventures, you've got a lifetime to explore them and keep her spirit alive; remember that every step you take is a piece of that journey together 💔 stay strong and let those memories fuel your own travels when the time comes.
