I decided that I would send a birthday card to a person that I hardly talk to now, especially since she no longer lives here. I went shopping and found the "right" card.
The reason why I wanted to send her a card is because her birthday is this week which just so happens to be the date of my mother's death, 01-10, (2010). This is a person that I found to be unable to consider my feelings on that day, or any other day.
Thus, as a symbol of my growth, I decided that I needed to mail her a birthday card, just because!
