She has always been someone that I could lean on during my low times. In childhood, I suffered from feelings of inadequacy, and thus was often alienated from the other kids at school. Even during these moments, no matter how bad I was doing emotionally, I knew I could take comfort in my mom's compassion and understanding.
When our dad left us, Mom stepped in to play the role of both parents for my brother, Rudy and I. It wasn't easy. Though many times there was strong conflict, our mom remained grounded for the both of us. Our family dynamics is far from perfect. No one knows what will happen in the future. What I can say, for sure, is that this day was a good day. For that, I am grateful.
Thank you, Mom. I love you. :-)
