I Miss You"},"content":{"rendered":"

Para o meu her\u00f3i, a minha rocha e o meu melhor amigo... Para a minha m\u00e3e.<\/em><\/p>\n

First of all, I must apologize to you for taking so long to write this letter. It took me almost ten years, but you used to say that it’s never too late to do a good thing.<\/p>\n

You left me too soon, with hundreds of unsaid words and even more unexpressed feelings. I know that you didn’t want that either, but life can be unfair sometimes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Deixo-me ficar neste mundo com a esperan\u00e7a de que esteja agora num lugar melhor e que tenha finalmente encontrado a sua paz.<\/p>\n

You were always trying to be a better wife, a better mother, a better daughter, a better friend\u2026 and you were. You were THE BEST mama!<\/p>\n

You used to say that we won\u2019t be able to understand you and Dad until we have our own kids. And you were right.<\/p>\n

Now that I have my daughter, I am aware of all the sacrifices you had to make to raise us. And because of that, I am so very sorry that I can\u2019t thank you enough or to show you how I appreciate it.<\/p>\n

But even if you were here, one lifetime wouldn\u2019t be enough to thank you for everything you\u2019ve done for us.<\/p>\n

Agora compreendo que a vida nunca foi t\u00e3o f\u00e1cil e perfeita como sempre tentaste apresent\u00e1-la.<\/p>\n

Tudo o que pod\u00edamos ver no teu rosto era um sorriso porque querias proteger-nos das coisas m\u00e1s e das pessoas m\u00e1s.<\/p>\n

Um sorriso era a sua arma contra todas as coisas m\u00e1s que aconteciam na sua vida.<\/p>\n

Nunca pens\u00e1mos que tivesses algum problema, porque foi tua a decis\u00e3o de n\u00e3o nos mostrares nada a n\u00e3o ser amor e felicidade. E estou muito grata por isso, porque tivemos uma inf\u00e2ncia despreocupada.<\/p>\n

Lembro-me de como costum\u00e1vamos pedir jornais emprestados ao av\u00f4 s\u00f3 para ler o hor\u00f3scopo.<\/p>\n

\"uma<\/p>\n

And how you used to say that you\u2019re glad I am a Sagittarius because I could protect you with my arrow if something or someone attacks you.<\/p>\n

But now, I even hate reading horoscopes because of that evil sign \u2013 CANCER. Oh, how life can be ironic sometimes. Unfair and ironic, I think, those are two words that describe it truly.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Your zodiac sign was Cancer, and your granddaughter is Cancer, also. That’s why July is the hardest month for me.<\/p>\n

I have to celebrate your and her birthday, and I have to go to your \u201cresting place\u201d (if I call it a grave, it\u2019ll mean you\u2019re never coming home again) because you also passed away in that month.<\/p>\n

That’s why July feels like an eternity for me every year. That’s why cancer became my worst enemy that took you away from me at a very young age.<\/p>\n

I am so very sorry I couldn’t shoot it and protect you from that evil enemy. I am sorry I failed as your Little Archer.<\/p>\n

Mas m\u00e3e, eu juro que vou ajudar as pessoas a lutar contra isso todos os dias da minha vida. Oh, se ao menos eu pudesse impedir que ele deixasse outra jovem rapariga sem a sua m\u00e3e, nunca mais.<\/p>\n

Eras um lutador e talvez tenhas perdido no \u00faltimo assalto, mas nunca te rendeste.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That’s why you are a true hero. And your rival, our sworn enemy, cancer, is the biggest coward because it always attacked you when you thought the game was over.<\/p>\n

E lembrem-se disto: Os her\u00f3is nunca morrem<\/a>, because they live in the stories of other people. And that’s how you are still here with us.<\/p>\n

Falo de ti todos os dias \u00e0 tua neta e \u00e9 assim que te trazemos de volta todos os dias.<\/p>\n

Deixaste-nos tantas li\u00e7\u00f5es de vida, tantas receitas dos nossos pratos preferidos, tantas recorda\u00e7\u00f5es bonitas e um amor incondicional.<\/p>\n

Deixaste-nos tantos peda\u00e7os de ti, mas tamb\u00e9m levaste um peda\u00e7o de cada um de n\u00f3s contigo.<\/p>\n

\"rapariga<\/p>\n

Estava a pensar se alguma vez voltaremos a ter essa pe\u00e7a de volta. Ou est\u00e1 a guard\u00e1-la para o dia em que nos voltarmos a ver?<\/p>\n

Even if we get it before then, we will never be whole again until we see you and know for sure that you\u2019re doing great up there, just like you did down here.<\/p>\n

I have so many things to say to you, but if only I could see you one last time, for a second at least, I wouldn’t spend our time on words, I would just hug you tight.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Esse abra\u00e7o mostrar-te-ia como foste amada e sentida durante todo este tempo. Gostava de ter sabido como o nosso tempo era precioso, mas sempre pensei que estarias sempre aqui. E agora sei que, de alguma forma, estar\u00e1s.<\/p>\n

Talvez n\u00e3o estejas fisicamente presente, mas est\u00e1s aqui em todas as outras formas e feitios.<\/p>\n

In my mind, my rhymes, my poems, and my heart. The only thing I think I couldn’t resist saying would be these three words: Love you, Mama\u2026<\/p>\n

Pedi tantas vezes a Deus para te enviar nos meus sonhos. Mas nunca vieste, nem mesmo l\u00e1.<\/p>\n

At first, I thought that you were angry because I didn’t say that final goodbye to you, for which I\u2019ve apologized to you every day since.<\/p>\n

But I was in another city, studying, trying to make you proud. I know that you were always hoping how I\u2019d finish a great school and become an independent woman one day.<\/p>\n

Por isso, espero que estejam agora orgulhosos de mim, estejam onde estiverem.<\/p>\n

\"uma<\/p>\n

Agora tenho um marido fant\u00e1stico, uma filha linda, a melhor fam\u00edlia que uma pessoa poderia desejar, mas mesmo assim, o melhor elogio que recebo \u00e9 quando as pessoas dizem que me pare\u00e7o, ando ou falo como tu.<\/p>\n

Dad says that every time he hears my laugh, he thinks that you\u2019ve come back home.<\/p>\n

I don’t have many photographs of you because you didn’t like that, just like I don’t like now, so I don’t blame you for that. The photographs of you in my mind will never fade.<\/p>\n

This is not just a letter for my momma\u2026 I wanted to write an open letter to all of you who sympathize with me, but also to all of you whose mothers are still here and alive.<\/p>\n

Please don’t neglect your mothers. Please be patient with them in their old age like they were with you in your teenage years. Please help them and visit them any time you can. Please don’t let anyone or anything be more important.<\/p>\n

Por favor, certifique-se de que eles sabem o quanto s\u00e3o amados e respeitados. E certifique-se de que nunca os deixa sem lhes dizer o quanto os ama.<\/p>\n

You never know what tomorrow brings, and you’ll forever regret it if you didn’t take the time to say \u201cI love you\u201d one last time.<\/p>\n

Espero que saibas como sentes a tua falta e como \u00e9s amada, mam\u00e3. Espero voltar a ver-te um dia. At\u00e9 l\u00e1, s\u00ea corajosa e alegre como sempre foste.<\/p>\n

Don’t worry about us, we are safe because we have a guardian angel who takes very good care of us.<\/p>\n
