GREAT LIFE GLOBAL MAY 2021 NEWSLETTER
We each have a mother. For some fortunate among us, we had a dear, loving, and inspiring Mom. Others of us have Grandmothers, Aunts, Sisters, Brothers, and Friends who act as mothers. Or we became loving Moms when we have kids. Men can take the role of loving mothers. Mothers come in all ages, genders, races, cultures, shapes and sizes. Some are married, some are single. So many kinds of mothers have always existed. At times we can learn to mother ourselves quite well.

So let us honor the spirit of Motherhood this Mothers Day and celebrate those amazing, nurturing people in our lives who birthed us or raised us, who worked to give us a life…a better life… or are our friends who give us love and support. In this Mother’s Day newsletter, we celebrate mothers with vintage photographs, loving stories, and humorous insights about how these close and influential persons shaped who we are today. 

Read such authors as Christine Pirello, Bill Tara, Marlene Watson-Tara, Ginat Rice, and Carol Louro, and more, who share stories of their outstanding and inspiring mothers or grandmothers. Learn about our- Lino and Jane’s - mothers and grandmothers, amazing women who shaped and saved their lives. Enjoy quotes and inspiring writings, to perhaps help you think of and feel gratitude towards your mother, the one who helped you grow then… and those who nurture you now. Thank you all. Thank you Mother Earth. And thank you Mom!
