So when I think about the most inspirational person in my life right now , I honestly can not look past my mother, see I know that I may have said something similar before in another post, but the truth is that , when it comes down to it, I really can not think of another person who inspires me more than her, my mother is the definition of selflessness, and this , she has shown me in more ways than I can count that being strong, caring, and putting family first is not just something you say, it is In fact something you live every single day.
My mom is one of those women you cannot easily describe with just one word, see she is a woman of value, someone that has lived her life just caring for others and never for once complaining about anything, see growing up, I saw how she used to always prioritize people around her before even herself, Sometimes I even wonder if use to think of herself at all, because she always seems to put everyone else’s needs ahead of her own
You know right now, my kids are with her like staying with her, and see honestly, it just makes this phase of my life so much easier for me, you know there are those days when I don’t even have anything to send for their feeding, but my mom just handles it all without making me feel bad, she never nags or makes me feel like I am failing , she just quietly steps in and does what she has to do, and that kind of support, you see that is not something you can take for granted , It is something that sticks in your heart and makes you just want to do better.
The truth is that not many people can carry the kind of weight she carries and will still smile through it all, my mother is not rich or anything ,but the richness she has in love, care, and values is something that even plenty money cannot buy , see I so much admire the way she carries herself, even the way she handles challenges, and the way she makes does sacrifices for people that she loves, sometimes I can't help but think to myself that if at all I can even be half the woman that she is, then I would be just fine.
Truth is , She inspires me to push forward even when life gets tough, because I have watched her live through tough seasons and not give up, and I have seen her make something out of nothing, I have seen her stretch like very little resources to provide for a whole family, and I have seen her do all this with a heart so full of so much kindness that you would just wonder how one person can be that selfless.
What I have learned from my mother is that inspiration is not always in big things that It is in the small, everyday acts of love and sacrifice , it is in showing up for your family when they need you most, it is in holding your head up even when life feels heavy, She is that inspiration for me.
So yeah, when I say my mom is the most inspirational person in my life, I mean it with my whole chest, she is a really good woman, through and through and I am grateful every single day that I get to call her my mom.
