    Condolences on your Mom. The loss of a parent is a very hard one.

    Life presents us with difficult challenges from time to time. Overcoming you current situation will make you stronger than ever. It sucks (all the way around) but just keep plodding forward, don't give up, and you will succeed. If you don't mind, what is your age, education, and do you already have a job?

    @jimLE I am really sorry about your Mom. Certainly leaves a hole in ones life when a parent passes away. The post above is correct, just keep moving forward, one step at a time. Really stinks that all this crap is hitting you all at once. You will be in my thoughts.

    My father passed away August 2016, my mother just a few months before. I've lost brothers and uncles to random violence, cancer, or other illness. I suppose for most, the loss of grandparents are the easiest to handle since they are typically very old and it is expected. But, that's the thing, isn't it? We're all mortal here on this rock --with an infinite consciousness. Try not to let the world hold you down, this isn't a permanent visit.

    What has helped me in the past is to pick up and move, to travel like the wind and experience this life. Every time you go somewhere new you get to see fresh faces and new cultures. It doesn't take money if you are willing to live simply and take life as it is handed to you. It does help to make friends wherever you go. I've never really subscribed to having strong family ties in the traditional sense. I've left my genetic lineage to its own (no sense worrying about that which you do not control) and accepted other people as family wherever I have gone. As a result, I have family all over this world.

    One bit of wisdom I can draw upon for this matter I believe may add some transparency is the British Queen Elizabeth I. With my personal feelings aside on the matter given the history between our nations, there's one significant happening about her life I find to be of special importance. Elizabeth never had offspring of her own, never married. Imagine in that time when women were not seated with power except in rare circumstances, and even then if she had married, her husband would become King and supplant her position. She always claimed that her people were her children. Some would claim she did this simply because she wanted to hold on to her throne. I believe she felt responsible and never fully trusted the intentions of others.

    We each must be responsible for what we are, what we do, and say even though we're really only here for a brief moment before we are gone. What matters is that we never lose sight of the footprints we can sometimes leave behind.

    Losing a loved one can be painful. I hope you can find the strength and will to continue on. I am also sure that is what a mother would want her child to do. Pretty sure at this point you are no child anymore, but we are always children in the eyes of our parents. Good Luck and best wishes on how you move forward from today.
