Freud wasn’t right about everything.
Then again who wants to be correct
about it all? He was in the true though
when he said a boy who grows beneath the shade of his mother’s love will forever have the feeling of conqueror. I know this feeling for even still in the middleness of
my life I seldom slay the dragon but I face the fire each day and sure as hell try.

I so love this: “a boy who grows beneath
the shade of his mother’s love will forever
have the feeling of conqueror.”
I have two boys. I hope and pray they will grow up to feel like they can conquer.
Thanks, Michelle. That’s a worthy hope and prayer.
And that’s what we mothers of sons attempt to do—nurture and cherish them under our shade. I have four conquerors, grown to adulthood now, living their dreams, boldly going where no man has gone before. 🙂
Melinda, I can feel your pride in them, the good kind of pride.
You change the way I see things. And I see my boys my men actually in a beautiful new way.
Thank you, Elizabeth. So much is about the eyes, huh?
pure awesomeness.
Thanks so much, Anne.
Oh the freedom to just shade and love…and let the strength rise up from those roots! Thank you!!!
Cathy, you are welcome!
Awesome. I sure hope my boys can say the same.
Thanks for stopping by, Patricia.
Aquinas would say your sure as hell trying is imputed as the deed. For all our sakes, it would be nice if he were right.
David, yes, that would be very nice…very nice indeed.
