Your way of expressing the feelings and experiences that are crashing over you is beautiful and moving. I am so sorry for what your mother is now going through, and you with her. May you be surrounded with loving and caring support and a sense of the nearness of God and his care.

the moving walkway metaphor is just about perfect, Liuan.

This piece is beautiful, Liuan. Thank you for sharing so vulnerably, and for your book recommendations. My own dad died when I was ten — a different experience, for sure, but I agree with that feeling of wearing a "Dead Dad" shirt! I don't wear t-shirts very often but I might wear that one. Blessings to you in your healing journey. ❤️

Beautifully written, Liuan. And so sorry for the news about your mother. Life, in all its variations, comes in waves.
