Our Mother
was of European heritage, Lithuanian to be specific, and escaped Lithuania
to Germany when the Russian's began invading. There she met my Father
and two years later I was born. When I was 2 years old we migrated
to Australia. My Mum was a strong woman, lived a hard life of poverty,
but we were always well fed, clean and much loved. We were her priority.
I have two sisters, Loretta and Violetta.
My
Beloved Mother joined Our Lord on August
30th, 1998.
Verse
from the Serenity Prayer:
"God,
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to
change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference."
Bubichki,
(my special name for Mum) I love and miss you more than words could ever
express, and you will always be forever in my heart.
This
is a prayer that our Mother carried with her at all times…….
A
Prayer For Today
"Every day
I need thee Lord, but this day especially. I need some extra strength to
face whatever is to be….This day more than any day I need to feel Thee
near – to fortify my courage and to overcome my fear.
By myself
I cannot meet the challenge of the hour, there are times when human creatures
need a higher power to help them bear what must be borne. And so, Dear
Lord, I Pray – hold on to my trembling hand and be with me today. “
