Women In My Life
It can be said with certainty that there are women in my life that make a huge difference. Whether it be because they stick with me through the worst times, or they support me in each and every way they can. There are times when I have felt alone, but these women continue to make their presence known, and they constantly reassure me and change my mood. I am truly blessed, and even that is an understatement.
My Mother
My mother, being one of these women that has made a huge difference in my life, continues day in and day out to show me unconditional support. Although sometimes I wreak havoc, she always continues to support me and forgive me. Being that the last couple of months has been really hard on me, and I have felt hopeless, she continues to remind me to keep fighting, and that I’m so close to the finish line, despite it not feeling that way most times. There are many times when she does things that make me upset. Even though it makes me upset, it is for my own good. That is what I remember each time I am upset, and that cures my mood instantly. All in all, she is a blessing of a mother, and I could not be luckier.
My Grandmother
For the first three years of my infancy, I was raised by my grandmother. My mother and my father were trying their best to make ends meet after they had me, therefore my grandmother willingly offered to take care of me in the meantime. Although I can not remember much of that time, I know I had an amazing time with them. My grandmother is an incredibly supportive woman, and I am so lucky to have her in my life. I am so close to her that I regard her as my mother, and always have. If it were not for my grandmother raising me the way she did, I am not sure I would have turned out to be the best version of myself.
My Significant Other
This woman is so special to me. She continues day in and day out to show me affection in every way possible. Words do not come close to describing how amazing this woman is, and how supportive she is. There have been many times when I would feel hopeless and I would want to give up, but this woman constantly reminds me to continue pushing and to continue fighting each and every day. Although a lot of times I do tend to make her upset, she always bears with me and stays with me and supports me. I could not be any more thankful for this one special woman in my life.
Importance of These Women
Sometimes, I fail to realize how lucky I am to have each of these women in my life. I have also failed to realize how much they have helped me throughout my life. Each and every day when I wake up, I am constantly thankful that I have the family and support system that I have now.
Otherwise, I would be completely lost, in an empty void with the only sound being my sorrow. Therefore, the women in my life I can truly say are a blessing to me, and if they were not in my life I am not sure where I would be now. I would certainly not be in a great mental state, as they have kept me grounded and have kept me fighting each and every single day.
