Okay, so my mom passed away about 10, 11 years ago.

You know, from the book, one of the questions I like to ask people, because I learned this from Marty Seligman, the father of positive psychology, is what's the happiest moment of your day as opposed to how did your day go?
And just have a little different angle to that question.
And
We like to be validated.
We like to feel we're appreciated, we're recognized, we're understood, we're approved of, particularly from our parents.
And my mom was on her deathbed and my brother and sister and I were hanging out on her deathbed for a good couple of weeks.
And I don't know if you've been around people who have died, but they're sort of dying and then suddenly they wake up and like talking to you like nothing's going, no problem.
And then they lie down again, start dying again.
And they go in and out, and it's kind of half dying and half not dying, so forth.
And my mother had been lying there, breathing funny when they're dying.
It's a really strange way of breathing.
It's not a normal way of breathing.
It's irregular breathing.
And then not breathing for periods of time.
And it's a very bizarre experience, death.
And we didn't quite know whether this was it.
We're never going to talk again.
She's done.
