Things I learned from my mom
First of all I learned that sometimes a hug can say more than words.
And that I could trust myself as I began to make my way in the world, because I was standing on the solid foundation she gave me.
I learned that strength comes from standing up and doing what's right, even if sometimes you stand alone.
I learned that success comes from trying, failing and trying again, not from everything being perfect all the time.
That kindness counts more than getting ahead. That I have to create the life I dream of.
And I learned that no matter where I am, there's someone who cares and believes in me.
