She's beautiful. The pain is real, and the realization that YOU are now the matriarch is daunting. I'm nowhere near over it. It's a blessing that you were able to prepare. I offer deepest sympathy.

I appreciate especially the line "Happiness and fulfillment come from having clean relationships." I find relationships messy by nature. I have no idea how to clean one, especially while holding firm to my boundaries. But it's worth ruminating upon.
