Many years ago I had a teacher who loved driving vintage buses and there was a warehouse filled with them in Devon he would visit all the time. He used to have pictures of the buses fully restored and recordings of the sounds. Being a musician and organist for his church I thought he must hear the sounds differently to the wail I used to hear but one day he told my mother the screech of one of the buses in second gear going up a hill was the same sound he heard inside himself. One of his problems was that his mother had never shown him any love.<\/p>\n
My own mother had a mother who was very distant unless you were away from her then her letters were filled with love and good advice. It is very difficult for people who are not shown love at a young age, and recognise the fact enough for it to be a problem for them in later life. Some such children grow up to compensate by adoring their own children but others just carry on the coldness. It is impossible to know why there is the difference in similar circumstances and one may suppose that though some people are unloving because \u00a0their parents were others are so because it is in their nature to be so.<\/p>\n
Whatever the reason it is always deeply sad to forget to tell someone you love them until you are dying.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
