Welcome to ATWKS!

“Life is a series of experiences, each of which makes us bigger, even though it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.”

Everything of value I learned, I learned from my mother.

I can honestly tell you right now that my father has had next to no impact on who I am today in comparison to my mother. My mother; a refugee and a daughter to refugees, has to be one of the most amazing and wise people around. She's taught me everything I needed to know about life from a very young age. Because of her, I already feel I know who I am, while other people my age still feel confused. I feel old because of all the experiences drawn from her, but I feel young at the same time.

How do you guys feel about your relationship with your parents, whether you're living with them or not?

It's my birthday, so I guess that's why I thought of this. I love my mother, despite our large differences.

I can't wait for the blackberry cheesecake today.

My mother is all I've got, she makes me so proud, she's accomplished so much for me to have all the things I have and I couldn't ask for anything else. We get along so well, she's so understanding (well for the most part haha) Aw, this made me feel nice to write. The song Hey Mama by Kanye West always reminds me of my mom and I usually get watery eyed listening to it because I can relate it to her a lot.. =)
