Rainbows and Memories

[bk_forever]

It's four years today, almost to the minute, since my mum passed away, so I was feeling down, but then I saw this...






Mum sent me a beautiful rainbow to cheer me up! It's difficult to see, but it's a double rainbow. We always stopped whatever we were doing to look at rainbows whenever one appeared so this one really felt like a message from above =)

Family can be funny in that sense. I'm only starting to connect with some of my cousins as an adult.

While others don't seem interested in me at all. I'm the one going over to Indonesia and they don't even acknowledge me. It's not like I go there everyday!

I guess you have to savior the moments with relatives that do care.

I have a cousin who lives locally, but never answers my phonecalls or emails. It's sad. I don't bother with giving them Christmas presents these days because last time they never came to collect them. Now my mum's gone it's like nobody bothers about me.

Anyway, enough of the gloom.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, my friend! *big hugs* Have a great day!

That's their lost. Sometimes friendships (including online) are more solid than family.*hugs*

Thanks, I don't really celebrate my birthday but it's so nice to feel the love. My brother gave me a belated birthday greeting. He gets so caught up on Facebook! :D

I don't really celebrate either these days, but it's still nice to have people remember! Glad to hear your brother did - eventually *grins*

I guess once you hit a certain age as an adult, it's like. Okay, another day...

I never understood the birthday punch thing people do to each other as kids. Luckily I never got those.

Yeah, my big brother is way more better than how he was at that moment. He spoils me in general so it's all good. I try and support him too.:D

For me, it's more because mum passed away the day after my birthday. Takes all the joy out of it for me.

That punching wasn't a thing over here. Thank goodness. At least not when I was at school.

Oh dear. I can't tell you how to feel. Remembering her life the day after she gave birth to you. That sounds emotional.*hugs*

I have mixed feelings about my father. I've had nice dreams about him since his passing.
