“This tug-of-war often obscures what's also happening between us. I am your mother, the first mile of your road. Me and all my obvious and hidden limitations. That means that in addition to possibly wrecking you, I have the chance to give to you what was given to me: a decent childhood, more good memories than bad, some values, a sense of tribe, a run at happiness. You can't imagine how seriously I take that - even as I fail you. Mothering you is the first thing of consequence that I have ever done.” GivingFirstsMeanWarDoneRunningMotherValuesGivenMemoriesChanceImagineFailingChildhoodHappeningsConsequenceObviousMilesLimitationDecentTribesMotheringGood MemoriesTug Of War Author:Kelly Corrigan
