Today is the second day of Mum's wake and since yesterday, I have seen many ones tear to the point of breaking down in front of the altar and Mum's coffin.

Something that really impacted me as I processed these scenes is the extent of my Mum's influence on these ones. They were simply people she see occasionally; yet, they have been impacted by Mum's words/actions to a certain extent to be reacting in such a way.

This really got me thinking - to what extent am I influencing every person I meet on a daily basis. Am I making the most of every opportunity to speak into their lives?

"I miss you Mum..."
