“It Can Be Done An inspirational poem from a loving Mother to her child It can be done! Yes, we have to believe it We have seen God do miracles for others And we know He has power To turn the situation around It can be done! It does not matter what happened in the past It may seem impossible But highly possible To the Lord of all possibilities It can be done! Even if you have failed before You can still try once more Work until you are sure Of a better outcome It can be done! As long as you do it with passion Just go on your knees and say a prayer Make sure you prosper Because it can be done!”

“The thing about deep personal quests is that you cannot search for the answers. The answers find you while you are on your journey, in their intended timing. Others can guide us. Books may resonate, propose a direction, or awaken questions. The answers. My answers. Your answers. The deep and real ones must be figured out by each of us. For me to own what I learned and embrace the gifts of this journey, I had to go through it myself. Heal what requested healing and own everything this journey brought as my power and understanding. Claim its teachings and have it become part of my family’s actual life.”

“My dad could go to work, he could get raises, he could be thanked for his contributions, he got a pay-check for his labor, but that didn't happen for moms. The best they could hope for would be a crayon valentine or a squashed, limp dandelion flower offered up from the damp hand of their wide-eyed and innocent child. Which wasn't nothing. In all my days I'd never considered anything to be more important than home. In a chaotic world, it was sanctuary; it was where love grew.”

“Some people said their mothers were the glue that held the family together; others called them the backbone. But Mama was the tendons. The nerves. The supple, giving fat--- Mama would not have liked the comparison. Dalton kept it to himself. And still, rather saw it as a compliment. Mama had softened the blows. Cushioned sharp bones from grinding into one another. Encompassed every strange and contrary part of their family like a warm blanket. Filled in the gaps.”

“Motherhood is meant to overwhelm us. It’s meant to slow us down and remind us of what matters most. It’s meant to expand us in order to make room for the children we’re (briefly) given to guide. It’s meant to reshape us into fuller, more well-rounded women. It reminds us of our interdependency, shows us where we still need to grow, and strengthens our capacity to connect from the heart.”

“There would be, half a million things, I could do, yet I don’t know, what would be so? When I will see you, for the first time, calm, twined in your daddy’s arm, coming towards me, I could do, half a million things- caress your skin, fondle your chin, stroke though your limbs, smoothly touch your lips, and make my silent wishes, for your health and, your intellect. Half a million things, I could do, yet I don’t know, what would be so? When I will see you, for the first time, I could say, half a million things- call you my kid, read a fine script, whisper love in your ears, sing a hymn. Half a million things, I could say, yet I don’t know, what would be so? I fear though, what if I am unable to, do any of this, and all I end up with, is, just a knot of tears, loaded with, some of the most pure prayers, I have ever chaired. Half a million things, I could do and I could say, yet when it happens, little will my practice play. Half a million things, and I wouldn't know, how and where one begins.”
