Today is my mom's 80th birthday! All us kids were blessed to be able to be with her to celebrate this wonderful milestone. It was also an occasion to meet her extended family, who are people that she lives around and interacts with, when we are in our respective countries of residence.
It was eye opening and touching to see and meet all these people who have taken her into their hearts and who care for her too. I am so thankful for their presence in her life and to have been able to share this great celebration together, in every one's presence. Meeting everyone in person has made her "extended family" a part of me too and vice versa.
This special celebration has brought us together in the Spirit of a shared appreciation and love for a very special person.
It is important to, if possible, take an interest in the human interactions of those you love. It enriches every one's life.
