Observation
A child grew up and left her mother’s home. The mother’s pain was greater than when she had given birth to her. She took her hand and grasped the womb that had once nurtured her. Loneliness is a cramp as intense as the agony of childbirth. “Bring my daughter home,” she prayed.
Replies by this mask
- Misery is a choice. There are forces that will judge you beyond those in front of your eyes.
- Maybe innocence is not totally lost, just outgrown. What you once cradled could be just beyond your reach. May you find her again.
- And even then, Eve's pain didn't end with childbirth, it was just the beginning. Creation and suffering have always gone hand in hand, but the fruit wasn't the final word. If pain was the curse, mercy was the answer. God still turns dust into grace.
Revision
A mother and child will always share a bond. A daughter will only fully understand her mom's love when she gets her own child.
