There are two places where the dead still live.
The first is in our hearts and minds.
The second is on Internet databases.
Today would have
been my mother’s ninety-third birthday. It’s still her birthday, (the date she
was born) but it can’t be the ninety-third, as she left this world thirteen
years ago.
But on Internet
databases she is now listed as being of a ripe old age she never got to be in
real life. Most of these “find anyone” sites never seem to find death
certificates. If they do, they don’t account for such in the information anyone
can google.
For me, the date
remains a monumental one, regardless.
Here she is, long
before I was even a thought:
🎉Happy Birthday🍻

She's so beautiful, Mirka. I see you in her. Light and love, always!
Such a lovely photograph!
Thank you Vijaya and MirkaK. My mother never though of herself as lovely, so in a way it's overdue :)
I love that picture of your mom, Mirka! She may not have thought of herself as lovely, but her personality shines through and makes me wish I could have known her.
What a great photo! I can see a resemblance. For sure, you'll always remember this important date.
What a pretty lady! It's nice that technology can help us preserve information about loved ones.
Your mother was a lovely young woman! A recent passing comment from my son got me interested in researching my family tree. It's fascinating how much information is available on the internet, but also amazing that so much of it is incorrect.
