30DWC - DAY 4 - Someone who Inspires me.

My mom.

My mom inspires me all the time.

She has been though so much in the last 5 years or so. Stuff a married woman never imagines having to go through.

Seriously take a minute to think about something:

Think about if David told you he wasn't in love with you anymore. That he had not been happy for a long time, but he didn't want to hurt you. Also that he had feelings for another woman.....

I'll give you a minute...































Put in the comment how you felt about that. Just THINKING about it. Sucks right?

My mom was so vulnerable, yet so incredibly strong during all the shit she had to go through. And i'm not making my dad seem like the bad guy in all this. I mean, he was definitely wrong in a lot of things, and he went about things the wrong way. But looking back on it now, he was just as confused and lost as anyone else. He made mistakes, and he will have to live with those mistakes, and that is always punishment enough.
But through it all, my mom tried, she tried so hard to keep her family together and keep what she had. She fought for it, made changes she knew she needed to make, and she did everything that she could.
And since then I have seen her blossom into a more confident woman. She is more strong headed, independent, sure, strong willed, and beautiful. Well, she was always beautiful. Ha!
At the same time she is still vulnerable, insecure, and still trying to figure it all out. Like me, like all of us really. But she pushes through it all, and find a way to make it all work out.
I could think of no one who inspires me more than my mother. She is the most important person to me in my life. My best friend (sorry, you suck. ha!). I value her opinion more than anyone else and she helps me so much to feel confident in myself and remind me that I can persevere gracefully through anything. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel, and that light is my mom telling me everything is going to be ok. :)

(I started crying while writing this just because of how damn much I love and adore that woman.)



"And now I know why the all the trees change in the fall

I know you were on my side
Even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
Staying back and watching me shine and

I didn't know if you knew
So I'm taking this chance to say
That I had the best day with you today."
