My life I would say has been as a result of God mercies and grace and the beautiful people in my life. Throughout my life, people have held me down right from the word go. I always say I was raised by a community because everyone in one way or the other came through from me at some point in time which I am more than grateful for.
Among all these prior who have helped me knowingly and unknowingly, there are also people I look up to, people who inspire me and people I learn from. One of these people is my mom. She’s someone who has been there for me from day one,held my had through it all and walked all the steps with me. In as much as we both love different lives and have different stories to tell, there’s a lot I have learnt from her.
She has lived this life longer than I have and so she knows the ins and outs of it all. Anything I run to her with, she finds a solution. She’s the one’s woman who can turn my coffee to rice. They say our mothers are superheroes and that’s very true. I have grown to see the kind of life she has and is living, the opportunities she didn’t have and how she still manages to make a difference and stand tall.
This fuels me to make use of every opportunity and luxury she has able to provide for me or one that comes my way. The road to a better life is a long one, but having my mother guiding me through it all is more than I can ask for. Many people wish to have this but they don’t, and I always call and count myself as part of the lucky ones.
