in more ways than one

Each essay reaches out & touches the Reader because of the struggles encountered whether succumbing to blindness or traveling too often for work or searching for ancestors or...it is so unfair that I can't comment on every mother's story... & there are a couple of sons' in there too!Mother love is a vintage brew regenerated with each woman, each child. It is steeped in our species' unwritten story & spiced with unbridled adoration & everyday epiphanies. To be a mother, regardless of biology or birth, is to accept an ancient mantle of compassion, responsibility & transformation. To mothers our children are gods incarnate, showing us the world anew, & to travel with them, because of them, for them, is indeed an enlightening journey. Rebeccasreads highly recommends A MOTHER'S WORLD, for the Reader will find something wonderful, heartbreaking, infuriating, inspiring, hilarious & everso genuine in this celebration, to be reread many times.
