Truth About Resilience, Reflection, Self Love, and Growth

The Truth About Resilience, Reflection, Self Love, and Growth You’re never too old to learn life lessons, grow, or reinvent yourself, even if your confidence is shattered from past life trauma. You can learn from it or let it destroy your self esteem. Become who your past self meant for you to be and choose to focus on the lesson rather than just the pain, which allows you to grow. Rebuilding involves rediscovering your true identity beneath the trauma. New things and people come a long. But you got to rebuild yourself and find your true self you want to be. When you start doing good with that, you’ll live and forget the trauma, it won’t be fully but you’ll remember the lesson that the Lord up above put upon you. Things don’t work out sometimes because He above has something better for you in the future as long as you self love yourself for who you are. Life lessons learned become part of your strength, and the pain diminishes over time. 

Birthday Wishes For My Mom I Love

Today, November 11 is not only a US Veterans Day holiday honoring in remembrance all military personnel who have served the United States Of America at any point in history, but we also get to celebrate my mom on her birthday!  Happy birthday Mom. You are so very loved and missed here. I choose to use this day to celebrate you. It's been many years since your passing, but I still think about you every single day.

November is my second favorite month of the year (May is my first), although it also brings some sadness because of today being my Mom's day of birth. I always celebrate it every year by doing things she loved to do like checking out antique shops and eating Chinese food! It's two things that are so simple, but that she always thoroughly enjoyed. It brings me joy too. Oh, by the way, if you haven't already, check out the new Frankenstein movie by Guillermo Del Toro on Netflix. It is now one of my favorites!

I feel like a true role model is somebody who lives up to their own core values. My mom was and still is my role model because she will always be my motivation for patience, courage, empathy, and authenticity. 

During the period when my grandmother was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 1970, my mom had no family besides her dying mother, her kid brother (my Uncle Rick), and me. I was greatly influenced by seeing Mom juggling feelings, maintaining positivity, and keeping composure, all while solely caring for her mom and brother while full-time working and single parenting. This experience provided me with a valuable learning experience of patience and courage during life's dips and hurdles.

Another inspiring time with my mom was in a laundromat parking lot. A bloody and bruised woman had crawled out of a truck. Mom immediately helped her. The woman was terrified of her boyfriend inside, so we took her elsewhere. My mom is always this way, and her empathy towards others will always motivate me to be likewise in my life core values. 

Lastly, but certainly not the least, my mom was as authentic as authenticity could get. She refused to be defined by any social status or title. She lived with her soul while always staying true to herself. Mom showed me that true authenticity reveals itself in 'being' instead of 'proving' one's self. 

I have no idea where I would be today without my mom. Her influence was, and still is, of upmost importance to me because she is the builder of my life's core. I love my mom so much forevermore!
