I honor

you today as I visit your grave 

and all the memories we had together. 

You always telling me I can be anything I want to be as long I put my mind too it. 

You told me that one day someone would try to use their words against me and for me to not listen to what they have to say and to not react because that is what they want. 

You taught me how to be strong  and to listen to my parents for they are a blessing and even though we won’t get along all the time we still have so much love for each other. 

And that love will get us through  so many hard times. 

I will always love you and always miss you even when my mind is so caught up in all that is going on around me.
