Entry 45/365

From Latin angustia (plural angustiae) "tightness, straitness, narrowness;" figuratively "distress, difficulty," from ang(u)ere "to throttle, torment" (from PIE root *angh- "tight, painfully constricted, painful").

Very intense restlessness feeling caused by something especially unpleasant or by the threat of misfortune or danger. That's the explanation and the feeling. 

Do Mothers ever stop worrying about their kids? I ask myself if I worry too much? I adore my son, and the thought of anything hurting him, physically or emotionally, whatever it is, makes my heart stop.  I have no words to describe the feeling. 

It is overwhelming. 

I just want him to thrive and be intensively happy. Enjoy life. Smile more than cry. 

I want him to feel loved, all the love I carry in my heart. Every day, all the time, for him. Available. Open. Always there. 

Do Mothers ever stop worrying?
