My Beautiful Mother

Mother I aspire to be more like you, to have your strength and even though we all break down I remember that too but it was your strength that struck in my mind. You were placed in a very difficult situation and although most people would not handle it very well you were inspiring. I remember your warmth too, it was always there and you cared even when I thought you did not as a child tends to do in that small mind of theirs. I know I was wrong to think that and only thought that crazy thought because of my age and lack of maturity. I now know better.

You help me see better too. There are times when I am so overwhelmed with emotion that I can not see what is clearly a reality and there in bright lights but you help me open my mind's eyes. This I will always be grateful for and your constant sacrifice for the five of us you gave birth to. You have gone without just so that you can give to us more than what your heart could give and I wish I could give back to you what you deserve in this life.

Mother I aspire to be like you or even to come close. I hope for your strength and your unconditional love. All your warmth is what has kept me sane and I thank you mother for everything and for your heart and for your soul. I will never stop loving you and I will never forget you. Always in my heart your loving memory now and forever.
