Solsinmotion Capoeira Collective Roda, May 2018 Edition

Mother is the name for God in the lips and hearts of little children.
– William Makepeace Thackeray

At 6 yrs “Mommy, I Love You.”
At 10 yrs. “Mom, Whatever.”
At 16 “Mom is so annoying.”
At 18 “I wanna leave this house.”
At 25 “Mom, you were right.”
At 30 “I wanna go to Mom’s house.”
At 50 “I don’t wanna lose my Mom.”
At 70 “I would give up everything
for my Mom to be here with me.”

Yeah, that’s usually how it goes, doesn’t it? Well, I’m not seventy yet, but everyday I wish I could see my Mom again. Just one more time… I wish I could hug my mother just one more time.. I would never let her go.. never.. you people out there with mothers are so lucky…

This Mother’s Day, join us at our Monthly Roda in El Sereno…

The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness. – Honoré de Balzac
