Mwahahahahahaha! My mom always told me that it's most important to be true to myself. I worried briefly that anyone just surfing LJ and stumbling across my profile might think I was a loon, which they wouldn't be too inaccurate about, hehehe! And then it showed up in huge freakin' letters when I switched layouts, bwahahahaha! My jaw dropped open but I thought, 'Meh, it's me!' ;-)
Towards the end of her life, my relationship with my mother really grew and evolved and I think she began to see, well, me. I was totally honest with her about everything and I thank goodness every day I had that opportunity. And then i lost that outlet and I think I lost my footing a little because there was no one I was as honest, more true to myself with. But I am making a conscious effort to change that, to really get that bond back with my sister that I had when we were young (obviously we're extremely close, but I really want to get to that completely straight forward place with her. And I think I will :-))
