I'm a son to a mother who worked her ass off and still does.
My brother and I always had everything we needed not everything we wanted. However my mother always found a way to make it work. I remember smashing collecting and smashing cans to get new shoes. I remember riding on the handle bars to school because mom had to be at work earlier than drop off. I remember riding bikes 6 miles to wrestling practice to go through the grueling practices and ride 6 miles home after. I remember sharing purple wrestling shoes (hand me downs) with my brother for 2 years even with tape on them because we couldn't afford them. I remember all the hard time as a child to the point where I won't even throw things away now until they are completely ripped...
My why is to always remember the hard times to remember the struggles to remember the feeling of being th le one to accomplish all that they said I couldn't.
I do this so I stay on a level field in my mind and never get to comfortable and forget about where I came from and how I was raised.
I do this so I can help the next one in line
I do this to glorify the Lord our God and showcase the goodness of what he can do for us.
What's your WHY ???
