It is the little things that count.
It is the big things that count.
Things that sound like a contradiction make the most sense.
Smile when I'm happy, cry when I'm sad.
Never let anyone tell you "you can't".
Laugh recklessly, ignore the strange looks people give you.
Love with an open heart.
The word hate does not exist. Well it does but it shouldn't.
Live for tomorrow.
Learn from the past.
There are more, but it could go on forever. Mama, you are the one person in my life that I can always depend on. You are there for me unfailingly. I trust you with my whole being. I love you with my whole heart. You are teaching me how to be a kind person, a forgiving person. You do not know anger. The strength you have is more than anyone should ever be allowed to have. It is incredible. The hard times have happened, and they are still happening but you aren't angry. You forgive him for not supporting you or caring about you. You love unconditionally. You are so selfless. You are my best friend. We used to fight all the time. In grade 9 I was such a little bitch. In grade 10 we were both lost. We have found the way and at the same time I have realized how important it is to have a good mother and how much I have taken you for granted. I have been blessed with a beautiful, amazing mum who I would die for. You do not even see how truly amazing you are. The other day Flora said to me "it's so cute how you and your mum are so close". I love that we gave her reason to say that. Or she'll say to me all annoyed when we've done something bad "you're going to tell you mum aren't you". I love that I can tell you anything. You keep me sane, I could not live without you mama!
