For anyone who is waking up this morning missing their mum, this one is for you.
Mother’s Day is a celebration of one of the most important, loving and influential people in your life.
So, when the day comes around but your mum is no longer with you, the emotional tug on your heart and memories can leave you feeling pretty raw.
While you might want to hide away from the world, wrapped in a blanket of your own self-protection, JK Rowling decided to post a message to let you know you’re not alone.
Taking to her Twitter account, the favoured author and mum-of-three remembered all the people waking up today facing their own 24-hour battle to hold it together:
Today’s Mother’s Day in the UK. If your mum isn’t here to treat, do something nice for yourself, because she’s part of you. Take a hug, too?
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) March 6, 2016
Whether you’re out for a special mother’s day lunch, or remembering someone you love today, mind yourself and take comfort in your many memories.
