How are you from 1-10? This is one of my mother’s check in questions that can infuriate at times but regardless – always helpful. When it comes to relations between us and our parents there’s a lot going on including remorse, regret, and room for repair. Whatever your relation to whomever you identify as your parents – present or absent, alive or dead – take time today to call if you can, write a note, reflect on where you are right now in terms of parental relations, from 1-10. Then what? Resolve to solve as best if possible. Thank you mother!
