INTERRUPTIONS
"When you are exasperated by interruptions, try to remember that their very frequency may indicate the value of your life. Only people who are full of help and strength are burdened by other persons' needs. The interruptions which we chafe at are the credentials of our indispensability. The greatest condemnation that anybody could incur - and it is a danger to guard against - is to be so independent, so unhelpful, that nobody ever interrupts us, and we are left comfortably alone."

this is very profound of you mother, and i love every moment of it. We complain about having things to do, people who require our attention, not having time to ourselves.. and yet, what would we do if it was just us? What a lonely and selfish world that would be. so really, the lesson here is to be grateful for chaos.
