My mother and I have the most strangest of relationships I've ever encountered since coming out. Yet, it has been the most successful of all the friendships I've ever had. I dont respect her because she gave birth to me, I dont because anybody could've done that. I do, however, respect and trust my mother because when it seemed insurmountable, she taught, provided, smacked, schooled me like no other. What follows is what I have found to enrich and enhance my life, without knowing that indirectly she has told me all of these things. So, to my mother, who reads this whenever I tell her to, thank you for being as stubborn as your child is. Thank you for giving me the space to create, disentegrate and mess up almost everything, only to have you to back me up.
You are worthy of the best, so act like it. You can do great, positive, and valuable things, so do them.
Live up to your outstanding potential. Think and act and live like the successful person you know you truly are.
Don’t cheat yourself or your world out of the best of yourself. Give everything you have to this moment, and the next, and the next.
It may be difficult and inconvenient and even painful to do what you know is best. Yet the regret of turning your back on your outstanding possibilities would be even more painful.
You know you can bring great richness to life, so do it. You have unique and meaningful value to give, so give it.
Feel the awesome power of your own best possibilities, and step forward to take responsibility for them.
Do what you must to live at your best, because in your best is the truth of who you are.
