Now listen closely, children. Your mother...
« on: March 10, 2012, 07:46:26 pm »
I know this is barely thread-worthy, but the sentiment is something to be cherished.

"Some of the fondest memories of my childhood, around supper time, when mother used to call from the backsteps of the old home place, "Come on home now son, it's supper time." My, how I'd love to hear that once again." - Johnny Cash

"But I remember my boyhood days back in Ferriday Louisiana, and long hot summers, and that good ol' cool Louisiana rain, y'know sometimes I wish I could just go back and be my mommas little boy again, I remember it just like yesterday, but mommas not here now, but I'd just love to... I'd give... five million dollars - not that I have anything like that - just to talk to my mother; she could straighten Jerry Lee Lewis out in an instant." - Jerry Lee Lewis


Treasure your mother whilst you can, because once she's gone, you won't ever be hearing those treasured words you hear every day, ever again.

Is this thread indicative of something? :(

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Some of us never heard those words to begin with. I never really got to know my mother myself. But despite from what I know of her painting her pretty badly I'm still happy she had a part in bringing me into the world at all. So there's that at least.

I removed some crap from this thread.  The OP didn't seem to think this thread was going to continue anyway, so I'm just going to warn some people and let it sink.
