May is such a beautiful mes isn’t it? It goes perfectamente with the season of Spring, and with what most think of during the month- Mother’s Day.  Por supuesto BB thinks, no, KNOWS Madres deserve that recognition for all they do and what they mean to us, so Babushka would never dream of taking that away.  This writing is hoping to add to the day with recognizing and dando Gracias to a mother we ALL have- La Bella Mother Earth, Madre Tierra. 

Mother to us all

Ever wonder why the Earth is seen as “Mother” to so many diferente peoples and cultures?  Because she sustains us.  She gives us life. The waters we drink, the air we breath , the land we cultivate, todo de ella.  Always there, siempre lista to give all of herself for our use and pleasure. And we querido Beautifuls have taken from her sin pena, sin pensamiento for too long.

In every mal tiempo there is a lesson to be learned. During this pandemic,  Madre Tierra is enjoying just being. Being noticed for her beauty, not as background but as bounty. The Bounty of Life. She’s sustanance of our bodies and souls, and as we eventually come to realize, “Mama is Always right.”

So let’s give Gracias and appreciation to our querida Mother Earth. She has always given her atencion to us; it’s time to do the same to her. Porque Madre hay sola UNA.

Babushka Besos a Todos. Cuidensen.

In this black and white photo, a pregnant person with long hair sits gracefully on a bed. Gently touching their belly, possibly pondering gestational diabetes, they wear minimal clothing and a watch. One arm rests over their chest in the softly lit room.
