We all say that we do not want to be like our parents when we get older. Well too bad, for the most part, many of us inherit some Godforsaken trait of our parents. This entry is an ode to my mother, the person that I loved to hate in high school, blamed many of my problems on and for the mother that I have come to know and love. I want to say thank you mom for making me who I am today. Because of you, I never hold my tongue, I always say what is on my mind, I am independent of mind and always look for a way to be free and pure.
As I sat through high school, I always blamed my mom for not loving me enough and disciplining me when I needed it the most. I have been through many emotional problems in that stage of my life that I couldnt fully understand at that time. Now that I am a grown woman, I have come to terms with the fact that I am just plain crazy! If it was not for my mother knocking some sense into my stubborn ass head, I probably would have went down the wrong road.
Thanks mom for pushing me to go to college and spend exorbitant amounts of money on college. Although, I am bitter about the money factor, college helped me grow up. At this stage in my life, I became pregnant with Santino. This was Gods way of telling me to slow my ass down and bear up to your responsibilities. My relationship with my mother blossomed from there. When other people who shall remain nameless, told me to get rid of my child, mommy told me that she would support me and stand by my decision. That is when I knew that I could make it through anything if my mother stuck by my side. Now my son is four, and he is the most important thing in my life.
Finally, I would like to thank you mom for making me free. Because of you, I do what I want to do and say what I want to say regardless of anyone else. I do not let anything hold me back, my mother gives me the strength that I need to have peace of mind. Because of you, I love to travel and see the world and live life to the fullest. Because of you mom, I love with all of my heart and always stand by my feelings. I am brave because of you. Thank you mommy!
