Yet it only takes a nano-second to forgive and love. (Love NOW, not 'with age' or 'with time', f--k time!)Wench says,
I do love now. But all true love grows, develops and increases. What I refer to mainly is the fact that I didn't love my mom very well as a teenager, I took her for granted a lot. Becoming a wife and a mother and experiencing each milestone with my son is helping me to appreciate what my mom did for her children, especially since she homeschooled us and was always teaching, caring for and loving us. With each realization of the work, reward and love involved in having a child, I love and appreciate my mom in ways I was never even aware of before.Dhani says,
