Courage comes in many forms
Courage to endure
Courage to stand for one’s principles
Courage to stand out
Courage to be an agent of change
Courage to explore and try something new
Courage to be vulnerable
Courage is telling the truth when it’s not convenient

Motherhood
The best school in life
The lessons we learn are invaluable
Motherhood
Not always easy
But it changes us in ways that are unimaginable
Motherhood
Commitment to our little ones
Putting their needs first
Motherhood
Teaches us lessons in
Perseverance and patience
Motherhood
Our chance to train the next generation
When a negative thought comes to mind
Think of three positive ones
When you feel disappointed
Think of what you’re grateful for
When things don’t go your way
Remember you don’t always know best
When your are overwhelmed
Take a deep breath
Our days are full of ups and downs
We can’t be happy all the time
But we can be content
We can be calm
That’s in our own hands
Though somethings are not
Our attitude determines our point of view
Our point of view, how we feel
We can wallow in the valley of sadness
Or, we can move through it

The story of courage
Seeking truth and looking for it everywhere
The story of curiosity
Trying to understand society and its development
The story of action
Not content with theoretical knowledge
The story of love
Love for one’s fellow man
Love for the Devine
The story of an ardent search
Unencumbered by tradition
The story of friendships
Transformative friendships
The story of sacrifice
Not compromising one’s beliefs
The story of challenges
Arriving one after another
The story of perseverance
In the face of trials
And finally the story of freedom
Freedom to be
Freedom to love
Freedom to serve one’s fellow man
Not needing to hide
The story of audacity of the
Descendants of the Dawnbreakers
The story of Milad

“Separation brings with it burning grief”
The loss of a loved one
A friend moving away
One’s children moving out
These things can cause us immense sadness
This is the way of our world
This is how we see things
If we think of physical separation
In the world of the spirit, though
We are close
We never leave one another
I will focus on our spiritual reality
When I feel sad about the loss of a friend
Or their moving away
We are always close in spirit
Separation has no meaning
