The Mothership in Honor of Mother's Day

The Mothership...

We cannot do much here on earth, without acknowledging our Mother. She came to earth on The Mothership, arrived with a slap and a cry only to grow from an infant to eventually a woman who could receive and then decide to cooporate with Mother Nature to carry you on, and out to sea on the Mothership of 9 months of worry, eating, nourishing, taking vitamins, refraining from drinking and smoking and expanding her ship that carriee just to cast you out on shore to this world...

Yes, she's The Mothership; She was only responsible for carrying you out to the edge and then coming back again, carrying you while you rested in her equastic waters, floating, swimming (in your head), playing, punching, kicking, wooing, listening to The Mothership's signals that were sweet, familiar, loud, blurry, and her movements that without them you would not be able to keep your sanity....

You were 'bout to be born. The Mothership gave you that last push or gushed you from her belly....Thus ended her Mission...The Mothership has set sail again, to find another sperm to bring you a gift in form of a sister or brother.

What should you do to honor your Vessel of Deliverance? Some Motherships have been parked forever in eternity, some are still carrying to you other siblings, some are older and just need some 'ship' detail cleaning, need some attention, need someone to remember and visit The Mother of the Mothership....Give her some flowers, a smile, some help, some attention an email, a call....

The Mothership gave you what you needed when you needed it the most. Once you got into the earth's atmosphere, she could have just walked away and say, "I've done my job, you are now on your own!" No, that's not what the Mothership did...That ship docked, and she walked out of that vessel and gave you her spirit, her soul, her intelligence, her emotions, her carresses, her smile, her laughter....she gave you her all, even to the point with The Captain of her ship felt like he was in second place, for even with or without the permanent presence of her Captain, she still knew that she had to take you farther, until she could take you no more.....

Then over time, the tides turned; The strong, vibrant Mothership was wearing out, wearing down, she was not as swift in her mind or as strong in her body as you once knew as a child. You find out that she cannot carry you any more so easily although what she can share is a word of encouragement or simple words like, "That's my boy!" or "That's my girl!" She shouts this even when you are an adult, have your own family and responsibilities.

The Mothership's role changes; she's out there in the middle of the ocean all alone and does not know which way to turn anymore...She's carried out her load and she's been a faithful carrier and supporter but something has changed. The Mothership is in trouble, she needs help! Her ship is not sinking but she needs help! Help from the same people she carried to earth. Help in the same areas where she once supplied, she once stood tall and defended...now she needs supplied, she needs to be defended, but often, too often, The Mothership is ABANDONED, she's taken out to sea to DISAPPEAR, so that those who look about her current state and are embarrassed, don't have to view or remember her.

The Mothership is OBSOLETE. Afterall, she did her duty and now she is up for retirement against her strong will. Only The Mothership knows that she is still carrying deposits of gold, and rich oil and diamonds; TREASURES...they are deeply hiden inside her ship, and all she needs is some help, some attention, some one to help her dig out her wealth.

But often she will sail alone, with no one really caring anymore, not understanding that the best is yet to come out of her, not The Mothership anymore but the Angelship as she advances into glory to see HER LORDSHIP, who says, "Well done, thy good and faithful servant..."

The Mothership gets her rewards, her jewels, her riches, her oil, not by the earthly population but the heavenly ones....

Oh, Mothership, carry me to my destination, only this time, may I treasure you while you are still here on earth for you are not be put out to sea prematurely and to the expense of neglecting you or your treasures....I LOVE YOU MOTHERSHIP!!!

Happy Mother's Day
