Pride and Humility in Generations

Grant Hope #235

I remember my mother sitting me down when I began to mature
she said boys will look at you differently
you’ll look at yourself differently
but you must always remember to build your house before you live in someone else’s

She led me into being a woman while still letting me be a child
protecting me as much as she could
imparting wisdom
shedding tears when she knew she had to let things go

Sometimes I wanted to tear down her wisdom
even when I knew it was right
but when I looked in the mirror I was proud of who I was
of the part of me that was her
the part of her that allowed me to be me
