I miss your smell, your laugh, your hours long talks repeating the same valuable information over and over. I miss the sound of your keys when you came home, and the way you said my name.
I hope you realize that your life was so inspiring. I now understand what mental health really is, and somewhat see what you were going through. I wish that I could have realized what your mental state was when you were here and helped you get through it. As your daughter I can proudly say today that you were an amazing woman. You made going through life’s trials look so easy but now that I’m walking my own path I can understand what you had to endure.

You were everything I wish to be in a mother and woman. I wish you could’ve lived to see that everything you taught me, actually stuck with me (even though I didn’t want to hear it). I feel like I need you now more than ever but all I can do is remember what you taught me and imagine what advice you would give me. I didn’t get to hear your advice on being a mother or a wife but I hope that everything I do will make you proud.

I have big goals and a clear vision of what I want to be in life. I wish you were here to experience it all with me. I make my moves in life just hoping that you get to see and are proud. Ma, if I had you back for a day I would spend the whole time showing you that I appreciate what you taught me and the mother you were. I hate that I had to loose you to see and understand your life and actions you took.

My everything. Everything I accomplish is in your name. You made it all possible. I miss you sooo much! Continue to watch over and direct me. You’re life was not in vain. Your legacy will continue forever.
