"I would eventually leave her the way she left her mother. Patterns repeat."
I felt that. And my mom was born in NC, but my family migrated to NYC.
Love your writing, by the way. I didn't do so well upstate, but that's where my mom has called home since 1986. I need to visit often, and I've started doing so after she ended up in the hospital after my aunt passed. Quite a few of her siblings also moved up there, because she was there, she's the oldest, and she's been everyone's sanctuary. That means that THAT place is where I go "home for the holidays", while I'm back here in the city, where I belong, and where we were all raised.

Thank you! Isn’t it great to know where you belong and to know where you be and to whom you belong?
Absolutely!
