Thank You


Thank you

You made me feel significant

You made me feel strong

You made me believe I could achieve

You made me realize,

You made me realize the importance of my struggles

You showed me that living is not just breathing

You showed me that living is being the best you can be

Living is being all that you have to offer and finding more

Being is not just breathing

You gave me options to live for

You gave me perspective I didn’t know I needed

You showed me light in places that only gave shadows

Without you in my life

The lessons I’ve learned would only be lessons to learn

Without your guidance I would be lost in a never-ending trail of mistakes

Mistakes that don’t need to be taken

Without your wisdom

I would be dazed and confused

Stressed and depressed

With you in my life I have success

You gave me reasons to be proud of myself

And not just give others that satisfaction

With you as my mentor

I found my voice

Intelligence

Passion

Thank you Mom.
