One Decade Down, Forever 2 Go
I received My Diploma today, on the anniversary of My mother's demise. This is not just a token of Hard work, limitlessness, and perseverance. It's a Token of comfort, an unbreakable bond, and new beginnings. I remember when I enrolled back in school in November and had my first meeting with my student advisor. The first question I asked was, “Has anyone ever completed/finished this program in half the time frame?” She responded saying “just one student, however, they were not working full-time. At the time, I was working full-time and was not in a position to work fewer hours once school started in the Spring.

"Surviving A Turmoil"
The year is 2020. The World is at a standstill, we are in the midst of a pandemic. Despite the current crisis and challenges facing our communities, my very own personal crisis is still far-fetched . As the Eve of your 5year anniversary draws nearer, my world begun to crumble as I recounted the events and days leading up to that fateful day in October 2015. My mind countlessly replayed every moment leading up to that dreadful Saturday in Mid-October. I could not help but reminisce how a time and day like this on a Thursday she was well and good. Sitting on the patio enjoying the beautiful sunlight as we talked and laughed on the phone. She sounded strong and healthy and assured me repeatedly that she is a fighter. This too shall come to pass; I will come out victorious. She described what her lunch menu looked like, her meal plans, and how much she was able to gradually eat processed foods again. The feeling was bittersweet, the pain had subsided, and she was excited to come off her eating schedule soon. The assurance of hearing and seeing her progress, made me certain She was indeed a Lioness, fighting for her cub’s wellbeing. The worry in my voice soon lessened, and we joked about her travel plans as soon as she gained the weight necessary for her medical clearance to travel. We were excited to see her demeanor change as she emphasizes to keep praying and continue to witness the power of Chain Prayer. We soon ended our call and I promised to call back later in the evening to say goodnight. As the day unfolded, I Indeed called back to say goodnight only to be told her condition worsened after lunch and she was admitted back to the Hospital. I could not quite grasp what was happening and requested to speak with her myself. Unfortunately, she was already asleep, and I opted to call back in the morning to help alienate her pain. Come Friday morning I was back to calling Mom hoping the news I had received that evening was untrue and she was back home. Unfortunately, it was not, my mother had worsened from the time we spoke the previous day to a point she was not able to carry a conversation with me at all. She only acknowledged what I was saying to her with non-verbal sounds. I could not understand what was taking place at the moment for things were just happening so fast not to mention the disbelief of it all. Nevertheless, I kept calling just for her to hear my voice even if she could not verbalize anything anymore.

Home away from Home
When I think of home, many memories flock my mind. What is home for you. Better yet, where is home. You will be Surprised by how much many people can’t summarize this question with just one word. A simply question yet it, consumes such a broad answer.
