“Astonishing, that my mother can carry so much. From the way she broke open to birth us, to the way she silently buried her dreams in soil so that we could one day bloom for her. I think about her youth and wonder, what kinds of aspirations she shed while crossing the oceans between her homeland and this foreign land. I hear men getting praised often. But what about the mothers who came to this country and pawned their hearts of gold, so their children could afford to shine?” — Immigrant mothers deserve the world, because they sacrificed their own.
