"When one woman honors who she is, all women collectively move closer to becoming what they are capable of being."
I've grown up seeing my mother work hard, raising 4 children all on her own. Her strength amazes me til today. The strength of a woman. I've learned to identify that strength within myself. There is a lineage of resilient woman in my life that are apart of me. Without a shadow of a doubt, my capabilities have made achievements and my potential is continuous.
Fear will no longer hold dominion over me, and Faith will extend me. I honor all the women in my life, the mothers, the teachers, the students, the professionals, the friends... my sisters. We as women need to edify each other consistently, reminding each other to take care of ourselves first. To dream and live now. We need to realize that our own aspirations and will to push is what teaches our communities and children to aspire and push. So cheers to Sisterhood, our Mothers and all Women.

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,
