Dead, But Still Alive

"When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure."

 

Yesterday was my mum’s dying day and the day before was her birthday. I actually planned to make this picture which I had in mind yesterday, but I just couldn’t. Too many thoughts were swirling around in my head, ranging from happy memories to really sad feelings of missing her. Even though these thoughts are still present, I today really wanted to dedicate her a picture in order to thank her for everything. And since this rose which she got one and a half years ago from one of her friends is faded but still with us, it reminds me of my mum which is dead, but still I sometimes have the feeling that she is with us, is smiling down on me and taking care of me. I miss you so much, mum! I hope that you (and Schecki) are doing well up there and that I’ll see you again one day!
