Labor for Learning

Labor for learning before you grow old,
For learning is better than silver or gold.
Silver and gold will vanish away,
But a good education will never decay.

Lessons a beautiful mother passes to her daughter. She wanted to get a part-time job while in school and asks her mom's advice. Her mother looks at her and says, "Labor for learning before you grow old, For learning is better than silver or gold. Silver and gold will vanish away, But a good education will never decay"...her daughter gazed upon her thinking "Huh".. The lesson was wise and her daughter grew to learn. Don't rush away from the opportunity for learning.

Knowledge is Power. Nothing compares to the confidence you feel when you are educated. Learning is everlasting.

So I share with you about a woman so remarkable with her prophetic wisdom, whom would always smile when I would see her. She was filled with grace always, even at her most painful moments. A courageous mother, grandmother, daughter, and sister. Thank you for demonstrating your strength as a woman, and love as a mother of five children. Sending you love as you Rest In Eternal Peace,
