My Daughter:
As I look at you and review your life thus far, I am amazed and astounded. It is
as if I am looking in a mirror and reviewing my life. I see the hardships, the
struggles, the pain and the strife. I cry tears for you. My heartaches and my
compassion spills out to you. I want to help, I want to advise, and I want to
alleviate your pain. I want to carry your burden. Yet, I know, I must watch, I
must be silent. You need to learn and grow and become your own person. I see
mistakes you have made or about to make, and I want to correct or stop you. Then
I look up and catch a reflection of myself.
I too made those same mistakes. What did I gain? I profited knowledge, growth,
and wisdom; I became strong. I too must let you learn, I must let you grow, to
become strong. You must become all that you can be. I shall not hinder your
growth. I shall remember me. I will remember along with joy you must experience
the pain. You must be you; you must have your own reflection in the mirror of
life.
Love, Mother
