Mom.

A mother’s love is pure & unconditional. A love so strong it can never be broken; my mother is all of this x 100,000. My mom is like superman coming down from the sky giving you hope, a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. My mom is the Obi WAN Kenobi to my Anakin Skywalker always guiding me on the right path, even though I don’t listen half of the time. My mom is also like Batman sneaking around in the night, always watching, always looking for answers, the world‘s greatest detective. At the end of the day my mom is human. She has days of her own struggles. Days were she breaks down & cries. However she still manages to be my hero. Someone I can look up to, someone who inspires me every day, makes me laugh & smile. Also like Yoda, someone I can always look for advice even though it might not make sense at the moment. In hard times my mom is a foundation I can always rely on & no matter how afraid I get my mom is the light at the end of the tunnel. Always pushing me to move forward, while dealing with her daily challenges. It’s not until I was older that I realized not everyone has a mom like mine. Sometimes I look at her & say to myself, “How did you do it?” Not everyone has someone in their corner always backing them up, always there to be a shoulder to cry on, always to be a guiding voice to pull you out of fear & back into the light. Many times I thought about Who was there for her ? Who helped her? Who guided her? Now I appreciate my mom even more than I ever have in my entire life. As I go through my adult life, I’m still learning & making mistakes. She was never prepared for half of what she went through, but she got through it. She always will. So I understand more now that she is my hero, my human, my gift. I have the absolute honor of being her child. I can rely on her to be there giving me advice & telling me to get a haircut & to make sure that I’m eating everyday all in the same sentence. To chase my dreams. To love pure & unconditionally. Treat others with kindness. Live life to the fullest. While teaching me this, I’m able to teach her things like putting herself first. She has always been there for everyone & now it’s her turn. As a kid no one was able to handle me & almost everyone was annoyed with me, except for my mom. I know I probably got on her nerves more times than she might have liked but she was always there motivating me & always lifting me up. I see her day in & day out work. Become a boss. Creating her name across America. Well known for her job & started of as a receptionist to becoming her own boss. There’s always something special about a woman who overcomes everything that is meant to destroy her. I don’t ever have a memory of going without food, clothes, the things I need & even toys that wasn’t a need but she made it happen. This single mom made my life the absolute best it can ever be. If I was to ever have the chance to change my mom that’s definitely not going to happen. To me my mom is perfectly imperfect. The greatest woman I know. She is rare & I will forever cherish her. My mom has left so many good memories & so many wonderful stories, wisdom & the knowledge to pass on to my future generation. She has shown me what a mother’s love is truly supposed to be, unconditional & pure. I look forward to the future adventures I will have with her & cherish everyday as if it is my last.
