In loving memory / Ugasi se jedna svjetlost

I knew it was the last time we saw each other when I was at the hospital in Skövde. Her will for life was broken. I prefer to remember her the way she was. Always had a smile on her face despite the hard life she has lived. She was grateful for all the things she had. Especially for her grandchildren and the beauty of seing the grandchildrens children. I remember a couple of things she always said and after 50 years of marriage and 9 children I guess she knew what she talked about. 1.st never ever allow anyone to hurt or hit you and 2. Take care of your husband. The children will one day move out and live their own life and you will stay alone with your husband. Take care of him because he is the one thay will take care if you when you are alone. I asked her do you regret anything and she said no. Such peace it must be regretting nothing. Even if it hurts I feel relieved that your suffering is gone. As I said I prefer to remember good things. Here is one of my favorite pictures of us.selfieZnala sam da je to bio nas posljedni sastanak kad sam je posjetila u bolnici u Skövdeu. Volja za zivotom je u njoj bila slomljena. Ipak hocu da je se sjecam onakvu kakva je prije toga bila. Uprkos teskom zivotu uvijek je bila nasmijana. Pogotovo kad su joj unucad dolazila. I praunucad. Bila je zahvalna za sve dobre stvari u zivotu, a lose je nekako dobro prebrodila. Bila je i ponosna sto je svu svoju djecu iznijela na pravi put. Pitala sam je da li se kajala za nesto sto je uradila ili sto nije uradila. Odgovorila mi je da nije. Koji dusevni mir! Sjecam se najvise dvije stvari sto je uporno nama ponavljala. 1. Nikad, nikad ne dozvolite da vas neko fizicki ili psihicki maltretira i 2. Cuvajte muza jer ce on vas cuvati kad vam djeca odu iz kuce. Iako mi je zao i tesko isto tako osjecam olaksanje za majku jer se ne mora vise patiti. Kao sto sam rekla hocu da mi ostane u lijepom sjecanju. Ovo mi je jedna od omiljenih slika sa njom.
