My Ultimate Inspiration

Life is beautiful she says while having tears in her eyes I wonder how she can still be so strong even while life is doing her all kinds of wrong “You only live once” though a cliché doesn’t sound like one coming from her I realise how the life we have the honour of getting only once, to me is all a blur Her words like no one else’s are impactful They inspire me, they have a certain pull “I’m so thankful to god,” she says Somehow still finding the positives focusing on how much worse everything could have been instead of how bad it currently is I realise the need to count my blessings, be grateful always Her words motivate me like no one else’s to be the best version of myself, get out of this phase She’s nothing special, she believes I wish she could look at herself from my eyes shes always names countless people whom I should get inspired from without knowing my ultimate inspiration is her, my mom the beautiful woman from whom I’ve received my life’s blood I don’t know if through all these years she ever realised the person I wanted to be most was her
