Mum

Is there anyone more admirable than a woman who stops moving forward to see how far her children can go? Who gives up her time, energy and sleep so that her children can have her share? In the darkest hours, but also the brightest days, she is always there for you, ensuring that despite her busy schedule, there is no time at which her love ceases. You’ve seen her world fall apart time after time seen her good nature be used and abused but no matter the hardship, she has always picked up the pieces. One by one. You’ve often felt yourself drowning in a deep, dark ocean of worry. Felt your lungs fill with intense despair and panic. But one thing that’ll never change, is that no matter how deep this ocean, she’ll always jump in it for you. You hate when you hear her doubt herself: her beauty, her strength, her intelligence. All she asks you for is your happiness when really, it’s the world, the whole entire world, that she deserves. As the years have gone on, you’ve become aware of your own strength. Your ability to carry on, despite whatever challenges life throws at you. You’ve noticed how you aren’t prepared to give up not on yourself not on those around you. You don’t for one second wonder who these qualities have come from, because you know that You are who you are because of her.
