Thick and Thin
An influential person to me is my mother
she cares for me and is teaching me how to become a strong black woman
and preaching me the ways on how to survive
She is teaching me the fundamentals of life
Teaching me how to be a better student, a better person, and overall a better me...
Through depression, oppression, and aggression I know that my mother will never leave me and that she will always be there for me
"like mother, like daughter" or so the saying goes
My mother sees the Pros in all situations but she also unveils the Cons, which is a skill not many can obtain nowadays, you see
So determined to discover what will I learn next only mother knows
Throughout my short life-span, I have come to the realization that there are new and beautiful things that occur every day but there are unexpected surprises that challenge us by never knowing when we will be affected
She is teaching me how to become a better student, a better person, and a better me
And a better me equals a better you
because I am the future
Now as I am I fade into my conscious and fall into my earth of dreams
but right now my brain, heart, mind, and body is bursting at the seams...
