At the risk of being maudlin, I wish I had a mother to give love to. I tried for many years, but it was not to be. For a long time, I loved my mother very, very much. It was a source of sadness that she never believed it, never accepted it, and did not return it.

So I wish the good mothers happiness instead. Motherhood is a good and pure thing, or at least it should be. Many of you exemplify it.

☺️Thank you! I wish my powers as a mother who did the best she could to raise a happy and successful son were strong enough to gas up the Way-Back Machine, and make your mom the kind of mother you could celebrate today with. But...on the other hand, and no thanks to your mother, but possibly because of her, you've become the kind of man I would be more than happy to call my son.🤗
