My daughter just gave me a great documentary called "The Great Mother". It's part of the Women of Tibet film series (http://womenoftibet.org/) which shows on PBS sometimes (you can also buy copies at that link). "The Great Mother" follows the life of Dekyi Tsering's - the Dalai Lama's mother. By following the journey of her life and times, we see the gifts that mothers can and do give when there is nothing left to give; how a mother’s love survives regardless of loss; and how simple gestures of encouragement and support can profoundly impact the course one’s life. It's really an amazing film and I recommend it to mothers everywhere!
