Today is life changing
A fetus born to a world
Naked a bare
Mother takes son to share to the world
Braces his feet for the ground beneath him
She teaches him to walk over Mountains
Silence Earthquakes
Calm Stormy Seas
Till he grows of age and takes his own journey
Without his mother, a boy does not become a man
She gives him the knowledge to be brute and stand through the cold world around us
Shares the secrets of kindness and forgiveness
Grudges are never the way to go
Just to understand when people can change no more
A mother makes you indestructible
In a world designed to tear you apart
Today is my 18th birthday. I was born December 30th, 1994 to my mother, Jody. Without her, I wouldn't be me. I wouldn't be writing, and I wouldn't be able to inspire people to be themselves. It's my birthday. I'll spend it honoring my mother.
