Like I have said, my mother kicks ass. Look at her! All confident, brave and fearless. She and I had a big gap missing each other for a very long time. We were apart blaming each other but also secretly and lovingly bonded together. We do have a friendship now — a hard-won one. At some point, I stopped looking back at the journey and just enjoyed where we’ve ended up. Apparently, so did she.
