Smart enough to make these millions
 Strong enough to bear the children
 Then get back to business


A mother’s existence in this world is a web of strength and fragility.  A mother is made to nurture, build and lead. She raises children in preparation to let go. She instills a love that endures through a lifespan.

My mother said something profound to me the other day: ‘You can always talk to me. I am always here to listen.’ These are eloquent words for a mother to say. They are diamond words.  In the everyday business of life, where the pushes and pulls of our time and energy are constant, we forget that the light within the soul is kindled by the warmth of a mother’s love.  Her message is one of true peace and healing.  She can give you peace in an instant.

I am reminded that even as a married woman, I still need to hear my mother’s voice. I am thankful.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your loved ones. Let your voice shine on the hearts of others.
