To the Kind, Loving, and Strong
We've all had moments when life is heavy. Moments when we need a listening ear. Moments when we share a laugh or sweet memory. Moments when we need a shoulder to cry on, and moments when we share triumphs. These little moments shape our lives.
Throughout my life, I have been provided with those who gave me the love, nurture, and support I've needed. Some of these souls are with me for life. Others have faded into the past. And still others, are yet to be discovered. But they have all played a role in shaping the woman I am today. And for that, I am incredibly grateful.
Today, I want to acknowledge these amazing people. Each unique, and each providing what only they can give.
To the one who cared for me when I was small - thank you!
To the one who offered a listening ear and a kind word - thank you!
To the one who taught me to cook, clean, and manage a house - thank you!
To the one who raised the small boy I now call my husband - thank you!
To the one who mentored me in spiritual things - thank you!
To the one who offered sound advice - thank you!
To the one who has walked with me through the highs and lows - thank you!
To the kindred spirit - thank you!
To the one who provided meals and a happy table - thank you!
To the one who made holidays special - thank you!
To the one who made me laugh - thank you!
Seasons come and go. Relationships grow and fade. But never underestimate the power you have to impact a life; even if just for a brief time. The little moments we choose to invest, can have monumental effects. We have the ability to encourage, nurture, and strengthen another soul, and we must use our time and power wisely.
So, in honor of Mother's Day, I want to acknowledge not just my mother, but all of my wonderful family, precious mentors, and beloved friends. Thank you for your love, your understanding, and your support. Life wouldn't be as sweet without you.
Much Love,
Abby
