007: The Day of the Dead
Update: 2019-11-14
Description
This was the first Day of the Dead we had without my mother. I wanted to put up a shrine on her honor. As I struggled with this, realizations about my mother's own struggles in our relationship dawned in on me. While I felt that she didn't love me enough, it was her own way of saying that she loved me so much that she wanted for me to become the best version of myself. And as I'm raising my own children, I see my own struggles in them. I now understand how she had made me the best version of myself.
