Ann There is not enough room to write about my angel on Earth, my Mum. My Mum is a gift from God sent here to help me through life's difficulties. My Mum is brave and true, and she taught me how to live each day with honour and integrity. My Mum is special, because God knew that only she would have the strength to raise me. To raise me to become the woman I am, to hold my hand when times were rough, to feel my pain but also be strong enough, and to know what is right, even when others would tell her she was wrong. She stood up for me, and battled for justice, when others would have walked away, and said, She'll be alright. She showed me that I could be anything, do anything and see everything, even when others told her I would never walk. My Mum was the one who always knew that I would be able to mingle among others and no one would know that I was different from them. My Mum raised me, on her own, working many jobs, some at the same time, there was no way she was going to say, "My child has a disability and it's not fair, so give me a pension, it is my right" To do so would fly in the face of what she was teaching me, that it is better to try before you concede that I'm not the same a the person next to me. My Mum even thought that a boy she knew would be a perfect match for me. Not wanting to hurt her feelings, I agreed to meet him and now 8 years later I am married to him, my sole-mate. So, now my Mum needs a rest, taking time for herself, moving with her love to a comfortable place, by the sea, where it is always warm. But where ever my Mum is will be always warm to me, as there is no greater warmth than what comes from her heart, when she sees me. ~Julie~ Back to Our Earth Angels- Page 3 |
