Life After an Empty Nest
The role of being a mother truly gives a deeper meaning in a person's existence. A lot of women devote their lives to building a warm, nurturing home for their children. However, when the years have gone by, and the children have grown, most mothers find themselves lost. What else do you do with your life once you find yourself in an empty nest?
