Pooja, the good thing is that you are crying. Its a gift to be able to express one's grief. I hope sharing this list was as freeing for you as it is for the reader.

Your mother must have been so good to have a daughter like you ❤

You think you’ll just cry over the loss of the person, but nothing prepares you for all the tiny (sometimes silly) things, related to the event or the person, that make you cry.

I distinctly remember this incident where after my mom passed away I was travelling by train at night and saw a girl beside me getting a call from her mom asking when will she reach home and at that moment I just couldn’t control my emotions and felt like crying. I felt so lonely in that particular moment where my mom is not there to ask me and nobody cares. This might be a little extreme to think but I felt that.

You’ve touched me deeply in profound ways here. My mother, my muse, the Italian cook and baker, left us in 2016. What I wouldn’t give for a taste of her nourishment ❤️❤️❤️
