Hey You,

Yesterday, I chased mom through a rainstorm in a mad dash to the car. She is 20 years in front of me, drenched and shining, my guiding light! We went to meet our daughter’s daughters. They are near 40 years behind me, just beginning to blossom into their own and shine.

We went to share a meal with them. We brought a hug.. and salve for the pain of lessons in the learning straight from our hearts full of love.

I wanted to tell you about how sweet this moment tastes.

I wanted you to know: I saw our line yesterday, and its beauty was unbelievable.

I wanted you to know I feel such pride…

I wanted to tell you how grateful I am for you.

Imagine how wise I will be because of every wonderful decision and each wrong turn you take? You are so much stronger than you know. The times that you are brave enough to be honest and admit that you feel so vulnerable you might break; you find the will inside to overcome.

You are a warrior… and I couldn’t respect you more.

I didn’t write to give you details.. but to affirm and confirm you instead.

Prepare yourself; it’s the path that will make you so strong.

You’ll make choices and you’ll struggle with yourself. You will feel the shame…just remember, this is where your truth will emerge.

Girl, if you had been perfect, our memories would be such a bore!

You are my hero. Did you know? I’m the one who has been there at every high, and held my breath with you at every low.

Would you believe me if I told you that between then and now, you’ll learn to use a kayak, become a model and a muse, that you’ll raise children and have grandchildren, and own your own home?

Would you believe you could fall in love with special dogs and create a bird sanctuary?

Just as you think you’re destined to be alone, you could take a chance and find the love of your life!

Would you believe you that could be an oracle? An affirmation; a survivor, or that you might represent the image of empowering women on a book’s page?

One day, you could be part of a sisterhood that spans the globe and sustains and nurtures your soul.

You should believe..

You could believe..

Please, just BELIEVE…

I know you.. and I love you.

Keep on dreaming. Your future will unfold in the most incredible ways. Never stop moving forward to find out how much is within your reach.

You are VAST.

You are POWERFUL.

You are the very source of LOVE.

You have everything within you that you need.

I am so proud of you.

Your biggest cheerleader,

Me ❤️
