Thank You Mom

Thank you mom, for everything you do. I don't know what life would be without you.

Thank You Mom
Kayla Hinton

I wish I could show you how much I love you but it seems impossible because it is such an infinite amount of love. You have the hardest job out there, caring and protecting me. I am so beyond blessed for all you have done and I want to give you thanks.

Thank you for always loving me.

I have been hurt by boys. I have been to the point of feeling like there is no point anymore all because of a stupid broken heart. You mended what I once thought couldn't be fixed. You showed me what love really is and what it really can be. I thank you for showing me that, it has made me stronger and opened up my heart more than ever.

Thank you for letting me vent.

Not many people are good listeners. However mom, you are. We will be driving in the car and I am screaming at the top of my lungs because of something that has frustrated me and your responses/advice amaze me. You either will be calmly agreeing or going of the hinges along side your daughter. Thanks for letting me talk to you about my biggest problems, but the worlds smallest.

Thank you for putting me first.

You have gone through a lot. You have lived this life much longer than I and you have worked so hard in your career. For what? For me. For your kids. You are selfless, you are strong you are everything I hope to be if I ever become a mom.

Thank you for understanding my personality.

You are the only one that truly understands my mind. Perhaps it was because you literally made me or perhaps it's because you basically are super women. I think majority of people see me and think I am insane. However, you mom, you think I am the worlds most perfect human being despite my flaws. You are accepting to not only me but the world, not many people are like that, so thank you.

Thank you for being strong.

You are strong when no one expects you to be. You constantly put on a brave face and never let your kids see you breaking. You know how hard that is for a human to do? You are always the one holding and hugging me when I'm down. You put us before you and all your problems. Thank you for being strong, but just know it is okay not to be, I am here.

Thank you for supporting me.

I could want to work at fast food the rest of my life and you know what you would say? "Whatever makes you happy, I'm happy." You don't doubt or question my choices. You accept them. You back up whatever I want to do in life. I have changed my major multiple times and each time you have given support that I didn't even ask for. Thank you for never doubting my capabilities.

Thank you for being you.

Lastly, thanks for being you mom. How is it that there 7.5 billion people in this world and I got blessed with you? Whenever I am sad, happy, indecisive, under appreciated I look to you. You may not think you are the best mom but I am telling you, you are. My opinion is the only one that should matter. I just hope you know how thankful I am for everything you do and don't cry too much after reading this.

I LOVE YOU!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
