My Sarah X

My daughter had to leave Ireland for work. She is teaching English in Madrid, Spain and is very happy there. She was home during the summer and when she was leaving, I was so sad to see her go but happy that she is happy. We are all living in difficult times with this global recession. Sad that our children have to leave their own country, the history of Ireland especially. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As you prepare to leave today, I already miss you. How fitting that the heavens have opened for another tearful “goodbye”. I hear you in the kitchen. The sound of you comforts me. Cooking is your ritual, writing is mine. I will immerse myself in words and you will be part of them, for you are a part of me. What a blessing to see the essence of me carry through in you. MMC 2011
