Inspired to write
I was 21 years old when my mother lost her battle to cancer. Or should I say won a victory into a life better than she had here on earth. How in the world could I go on living without having a mother to turn to? I hadn't even gotten married? Who would help me pick out a dress? I hadn't even had children. Wasn't she suppose to be there holding my hand telling me "I know how you are feeling, but you can do this?" I hadn't even established credit, bought a house, a car or anything else with significant value? Aren't parents there to co-sign or shell out cash? What would happen if my children get sick, break an arm or won't breastfeed? Moms are who you call before you even call 911! Truth is I have already gone through all of these situations, YES with NO physical presence of my mother, but she has inspired and taught me so much that she continues to impact my life everyday. I took my mother for granted while I had her, and now without her I yearn for her advice, touch, voice, smile and just having her! I will continue to live a life she would be proud of and write about how she is still VERY MUCH a part of my life!
