A MOTHERS LOVE PART 2

THE MOST MAGICAL DAY OF MY LIFE WAS WHEN I BECAME A MOTHER.

I've been looking back at my journey of motherhood I must say it's nothing like what I envisioned it to be . What I know is that it is much better than what I thought.

To be a mother is to learn and unlearn.

It is to admit you are wrong and might not always have the answers.

Being a mother is locking yourself in the bathroom long enought to come out with a smile on your face 

It is to sacrifice everything so that someone else can have everything.

It is to live your life with your heart on your sleeve.

It is to roar like a lioness To chase away the enemy.

But be gentle enough to carry your cub in your mouth without hurting it.

It is to discover what life means and to have your heart break because of the knowledge you have to carry with you.

It is to live your nightmares and still believe in that dream.

It is to know nothing at all but share what you know as if you know it all 

It is to patiently wait quietly until they discover how amazing you are.

GROWING OLDER (WISDOM IN AGING)

YOU ALREADY ARE THAT PERSON SO PUT YOURSELF IN THAT PLACE.

Looking back on my life I've come to see aging isn't what you think it's going to be and also being young isn't the only thing you are going to be.

It's a delicate balance.You've got to give yourself the right amount of time. Enought to learn and apply what you have learnt and enough to know when to unlearn what you learnt.

I've also found that seeing the world through a child's eyes means to be yourself and not let external factors dictate who you should be.

I've also realized that the fountain of youth does exist but it exists in your mind and what you feed it and what you allow it.

I have also realized that as good as it feels to receive it feels much better to give .

I've realized that we allow our thoughts to imprison us but it is in our words that we find freedom.

To live you must love and to love means you will loose something to gain something else in return.

I have seen that sometimes it's when it's darkest that you get the strength to live.

I have learnt that faith truly is all you need .

Believing in something ensures that you get up and try again even when you don't want to .

However my favorite lesson is that you can never do things on your own you have to have people in your life to show you what life truly is .

Live,learn ,laugh ,love and never stop dreaming....
