Last Friday night I had to say goodbye to the strongest person I ever knew. My Mom. This is one of the times in my life she tried to prepare me for. She did the best she could. But you can't do it all, Mom.

God Speed, woman. I love you...

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I went through this, too, December 2011. Still seems hard to believe that I can't pick up the phone and talk to her. I feel for you, brother.

    My condolences. Sorry for your loss. I understand. Lost both of my parents within a year of each other and several months later I was off to mainland China for a year or so of teaching and research. The distraction proved "good" for me. But the loss remains.

    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    Dear Lord, relying on your promises to us, I turn to you in trust that my mother is with you and that she is enjoying your loving embrace. You alone know how she loved the best she could and how she faithfully endured the struggles that she faced. You know the graces you gave her and you know the grace she was for me and for so many. For all the ways she truly loved the way you loved her, please reward her, Lord. May she enjoy the communion of all her family and friends who are with you.
    Lord, I know my mother still loves us who are still here on earth. I ask you that you might listen to her fervent prayers for us. Help me to grow into a new and deeper relationship with my mother now, as I long for the day when we will both meet in your embrace - freed from all that might have hindered our relationship on earth, knowing and understanding everything we did not know or understand on this earth.
    Amen.
