So my friend's mother passed away this morning and he posted the most beautiful and eloquent tribute to her on his Facebook.
I was in the mood for a great emotional ballad or 50 to get me through. But I realized almost all pop ballads are about love and not actual loss. And then I realized I didn't want some sappy ballad playing. Especially while reflecting on the subject at hand.
It donned on me that my fave had the perfect song to celebrate her and the amazing son she has. Especially fitting due to the circumstances of her passing.
And what really did me in, and I'm still tearring up, is the picture he posted of him holding her hand in the hospital bed.
I'm so emotionally done today.
Bless you Gaga for getting me through the day.
