Mom, born in a small town in the deepest part of Venezuela, according to statistics she should not have had any kind of opportunities in this life, but she went against any number. How did she do it? I always ask myself that question. How does a person who grew up without any hint of love give everything to her daughters? How can a person who has never received a hug give affection? My mother's love language is not physical contact, she has other ways to show how big her heart is, she never missed a school event, she was always there to applaud those poorly done dances and crafts, cook the food favorite on birthdays, make magic at Christmas. I really feel like crying as I write this, before I didn't understand my mother, why was she so passionate about work? Why did she get so stressed when business wasn't going well? They were the doubts I had when I was a child/teenager, but then you find out that Mom did not have a warm and comfortable bed like mine, she slept in cardboard boxes on the floor, she did not have new clothes, she begged with her adoptive family to Being able to have to dress, while my sisters and I had new clothes every week, we never missed 3 meals and snacks a day, my mother was not so lucky. How did my mom get her own apartment, car and business? The situation in which she grew up did not have many aspirational hopes, the statistics indicated the opposite: prostitution, teenage pregnancy, employed for life in cleaning service, living with an abusive man; But she went against everything, her life did not give her favorable opportunities, so she decided to create her own opportunities, because she is like that, incredible and wonderful, stronger and more resilient than she believes. She grew up surrounded by adults who, instead of protecting her, took away her innocence in every way. If God exists, sometimes I fantasize about the idea that my mom has another chance to be born, but this time she is surrounded by the love and protection that she was not given, because she deserves it, my mom has achieved so much having been born in a situation without hopes that I don't want to imagine what would have happened to her if her situation had been the opposite. Her story inspires me, it makes me believe that no one has limits, I would like to be half as good and intelligent as her. She was ahead of her time, she paid for her studies on her own to be able to at least finish high school, she didn't go to university because she dedicated herself to working, she didn't like to keep schedules or have bosses, so she started selling clothes on her own. , she knew what she wanted in life, not to go through hardship again, much less her daughters, she dedicated herself to her work, saving, investing, selling, investing again, she has achieved a lot with the little knowledge she had of economics. She is noble, passionate about fashion, flirtatious, intelligent, smiling, funny, empathetic, sensitive. She became the service girl who cleaned the house, she ate in the kitchen after her bosses and they did not treat her with dignity, to having a service girl at home whom she respected and ate at her table. Mom taught us by her example the value and respect that is owed to people regardless of their job or social status, she taught us to work, to cook, not because she is too pampering to make us cook hahaha. She has always supported us in what we want to do, work or study, she is always there to give moral support and words of encouragement. I miss my mom very much, I wish that the universe gives us a lot of life and health to see each other again and recover all these years that we have not been together, share, laugh, hug each other, cry, and pamper each other.
