“You make every space more beautiful.” My mom said to this me when I was a teenager. It has stuck with me since. She could say the most incredible things. Filled with such love and wonder and admiration.
She used to tell me “I don’t know where you got your x,y,z from.” And I’d think “well you of course.”
Growing up surrounded by unconditional love and support is a powerful thing. To hear it in my parents words to me. To feel it in their consistent loving presence shaped who I am today.
They might be physically gone but they are embedded in my soul. In my very being. My strength and capability and resilience sprung out of this foundation.
Love is power.
Love is power.
Love is power.
Love. Is. Power.
