My mother was amazing! My heart aches from missing her so much. She endured many hardships, especially that fact that she migrated from Jamaica. She left her own mother and moved hundreds of miles away for her children. She wanted to provide a better way of life for us. I'm thankful for everything that she taught me and the love that she showed us. If it wasn't for my mother, I wouldn't be the person that I am today. I love and miss you dearly. -Dian
Dian i know you are hurting right now and full of sorrow, but i would like to share this verse(s) in to give you strength and encouragement: Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning(Psalm 30:5) i will lift up mine eyed unto the hills, fore whence cometh my help; my help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. (psalm 12:1-2)
