Sense of Lost Love

Love bears all the happiness and all the pain; true satisfaction will come from loving another with all your heart. My mother always told me to remember that because that to her creates and embodies the genuine essence of life. Those words still echo through my head like ringing chime bells lost in the mist.

She never hurt another soul, nobody as kind as she. Then she left me that night, no word of good bye or any wave, or hug. Nights after that I cry myself to sleep, the anguish so harsh, the wound etched so deep. I thought my heart could never feel the love that I felt for my mother. Days go by and I learn to cope with life without her loving presence, her words so sweet and wise. Her spirit never dwarfed by the agony that plagued her. I am sure she never wanted to leave me, yet another call beckoned her. My heart cracked and slowly died when she left, still so much distress in my heart. Then you came into my life; you brightened the darkest parts of my soul. You shared with me your love and your heart.

You tended my broken heart and mended my empty soul. One child of glory you gave to me, a bundle of joy and tears. The happiest days of my life I spent with you, never believing that you would leave me like my mother. Now I see you there my love, my angel, my spirit, there you lay breathing heavily agonizing in so much pain. How could you even dare try to leave me? My heart starts the trek to pain again, the suffering and the torture will never abate. I know you must leave me, you think for Richard, our son. Think not of his pain for I will comfort him and help him through that torment.

  • Eulogy for Mother

    2087 Words  | 5 Pages

    I, of course, knew my mother as a mother. As I have reached adulthood and become a mother myself, I have also known her as a friend. My mom shared much of herself with me, and I saw sides of my mother as she struggled with her cancer that I had never seen before, especially her strong belief in positive thinking and the importance of quality of life. I was privileged to know so many facets of my mother, but certainly I did not know all. There were parts of her life that I didn’t see, relationships that I didn’t know about. Last night, at the wake, so many stories were told to me about my mom’s strength, courage, humor, kindness, her quietness, her loyalty as a friend. It was so special to hear of these things that my mom said and did, to know some of these other parts of her life. I hope that her friends and family will continue to share these stories with me and with each other so we can continue to know and remember my mom.

  • Symbols of the Hopi Pottery

    1981 Words  | 4 Pages

    When most people look at a piece of pottery the first thing that comes to mind is the significance of the symbols and the stories behind these symbols. There are some symbols of Hopi pottery that have stories behind them and some that are symbols of either lost significance or the story is unknown. Some of the symbols we think of as symbols, are really the potters own design. Most people make the mistake that symbols and designs are the same thing, but in fact they are very different. Hopi potters, mostly women, have been instrumental in both preserving and developing traditional symbols and innovating designs in response to changes in and challenges to their culture.

    I rushed out of the bedroom confused. I began to realize what was going on. I ran to where I last saw her and she was not there. Never before I felt my heart sank. My eyes filled with tears. I dropped to my knees and felt the cold white tile she last swept and mopped for my family. I look up and around seeing picture frames of of her kids, grandchildren, and great grandchildren smiling. I turn my head to the right and see the that little statue of the Virgin Mary, the last gift we gave her. I began to cry and walked to my mother hugging her. My father walked dreadfully inside the house. He had rushed my great grandmother to the hospital but time has not on his side. She had a bad heart and was not taking her medication. Later that morning, many people I have never seen before came by to pray. I wandered why this had to happen to her. So much grief and sadness came upon

  • Livy

    621 Words  | 2 Pages

    Titus Livius Patavinius was a patriot who believed in the "purer morality" of the Roman Empire and Republic that had sustained its existence for so long. He also saw, however, a gradual decline in morality and virtue over time as Roman society became richer and more prone to greed. As a result of this observation, he did not trust that any modern ruler would possess the moral integrity of the great leaders of the past, but perhaps if they read his book they could learn from the good examples and be warned by the bad ones. Machiavelli also agreed that history should be studied and applied to the present, but he believed that when people read Livy, they took “infinitely more pleasure in knowing the variety of incidents that are contained in [Livy’s writings], without ever thinking of imitating them.” In other words, Livy’s account of Rome was more of a glorified fairytale which no one could possibly use as a reference for solving current problems so he decided to write a commentary explaining what he believed to be the real reasons for the rise (and fall) of Rome. Both Livy and Machi...

  • The Kite Runner Analysis

    715 Words  | 2 Pages

    To begin, the tense relationship between the protagonist, Amir and his father Baba demonstrates the disagreement among child and parent. The role of father-son is a dominant relationship in literature; the father is a very important role model to the child. Every boy needs a figure to influence them; however Baba did not live up to his expectations. The fact that Amir and Baba were opposite from one another signified a weak relationship. Baba had expressed his concern to his best friend, Rahim Khan, who is also known as Amir’s motivator. The representation of social class is used to determine the relationship between Amir and Baba. Baba believes he needed to be an inspiration to his son. Harsh words like, “If I hadn’t seen the doctor pull him out of my wife with my own eyes, I’d never believe he’s my son. (25)” can help define their beliefs. A child tries to build their parents trust by committing and altering behaviours that done feel true just to persuade a parent. Stereotypes such as: men should never be emotional, men always need to have interest in sports; portraits that Baba cares more about his class then his own son. Due to jealousy of the relationship between Hassan, whom had been introduced as a servant then later on revealed to be...

  • Love Essay: Love: What Makes Us Human?

    945 Words  | 2 Pages

    Great feelings like partnership, remembrance, and parenthood can accompany love, but feelings like heartbreak, torment, and grief can also accompany love. “A strong affection for another” is not an all-encompassing definition for love. Love is happiness and fairytales but is also pain and sadness. No dictionary could truly define human emotion, as words are to simple to convey the overlapping complexity of the feelings we experience. Love is what builds us up and what breaks us down, but most importantly, it is what makes us

  • Analysis Of The Divine Comedy

    1657 Words  | 4 Pages

    On display in the beginning of this back room was a bunch of different sizes bowls that were well decorated, crafted, and painted. In this section I learn that “In 1954 Ladi Kwali became the first woman member of a pottery training center established in Abuja, Nigeria and still remains its best known artist skilled in tradition methods of hand-built pottery.” Which is metaphoric because usually the pottery was created by women, crafting its shape, size, and designs all by hand; they used wood to help create and be a mold for the shape of the pots. These pots were used daily naturally for various reasoning’s like cooking and storing water, during dry months or so that the women wouldn’t have to walk far from the villages to fetch the water. Some of them had coloring to them and I’m sure this came from plant dyes, the pottery was known to be very fragile and heavy, which is not hard to understand why given their circumstances. With the coloring the colors can convey important messages but may not always be symbolic or have a meaning depending on the culture. African cultures vary in meaning and traditions as it comes to the design work and colors of their materials and clothing. Bowling making goes hand in hand with the African baskets and weaving which is a huge part of the culture and daily life of African
