My mother had a great deal
of trouble with me, but
I think she enjoyed it.
Mark Twain
One of my great pleasures in photographing women is hearing about their life journeys and the remarkable people who have blessed their path. For Mother’s Day, this extraordinary Powerful Goddess graciously shares:
When I was five years old, my parents’ divorce left my mother in dire financial straits, yet I never heard her complain or say anything negative or prejudiced about anyone. She accepted my lifestyle choices through the 60’s/70’s including those that pushed far beyond limits even for today’s parents. At 15, I wanted to join a cabaret act because nothing makes me happier than performing so she let me use her clothes and makeup and looked the other way. And that was just the beginning of my storied adventures!
She loved the latest fashions, hot pants, go go boots, gowns, etc. While she took my brother clothes shopping at discount stores, she went out of her way to take me to fancier boutiques because she knew how much I loved beautiful things.
My mom is an extraordinary human being, truly a great beauty inside and out, caring, charming, stylish. Her heart is huge and she loves beyond the unconditional. I love speaking to her freely about my life and problems, including matters I would never reveal to friends. Thank you so much, Mom, for loving me for who I am, imperfections and all! You are my life’s greatest blessing and I am eternally grateful!
