I'll not be singing over any dead mothers until I understand."

To see the life lesson in every situation; to feel joy and peace in every circumstance; to hear and speak only positive, uplifting, kind and caring words; to touch hearts in a positive and meaningful way; to be inspired by others and to be inspirational for others. To truly make a significant difference in my life and the lives of others by becoming my best self and being the best I can be in service to them.

"Mrs. Ramsay!" she said aloud, "Mrs. Ramsay!" The tears ran down her face."
