It is my sincere hope that one day soon you will come to the realization that I am your ally not your enemy. I want the very best for you, and push hard everyday for you to give your very best in all you do. “Winners never quit, and losers never win.” I’ve been saying this to you all of your life, and I know that this little saying has caused us strife. Please know that my pushing, rules, comments, and limits are all in LOVE! Believe it or not I too was pushed, had rules, and was set limits. I understand that in your age things are much bigger than they are for me. I really do try to put myself in your (those) shoes that I wore many years ago…seeing things from your perspective. I want more for you than I had, the sky really is the limit. Don’t give up on your self or sell yourself short. When your picked for second string or an alternate, put your heart into it to have a good attitude and be the best darn alternate there is or will be thus displaying LONG SUFFERING. I pray you learn PATIENCE (with others as well as self). Patience really is a virtue, though a learned one at times. I pray you that you portray FORGIVENESS. I pray you learn SELF CONTROL. I pray that you act with KINDNESS in all regards. Have FAITH in the outcome and it will be. Act in GOODNESS in all areas of your day. Be JOYFUL, and choose friends that keep your joy and you will be at PEACE. Always know that I trust you to make the right decisions and use what I’ve taught you along with common sense to do the right thing. I am however fully aware that you will fall, and will not always excercise MILDNESS. I am right here for you during all those times, though I cannot fight your battles, fix your heart ache, or do the work for you I am here as your ally to KEEP PUSHING YOU! I will always be that voice in your head saying get up and do it again. All of these things are said to you in LOVE, with the hopes that one day you will understand all the world is not against you my love, Mom.
