Where do you go when you want to talk or share? (lemm.ee)

I had an extraordinary experience today, but it didn't relate to a hobby or career or political topic. I tried to find an appropriate community but I guess I don't have the right terms. Where can one turn to share triumphs, defeats, and sacred moments?

I call my mother, she's always happy to hear what's going on

This.

OP, if your mother is still with us, give her a call. Maybe just ask her how her day was. Maybe save your stuff for a call tomorrow.

I'm calling my mom tomorrow. She's like 1% fuddy now and tells the same stories, but she really likes those stories.

That's so sweet. The time we have with our loved ones really is a gift
