My Mother Taught Me

This is the year of peace, making peace with our selves and our neighbors, cherishing those closest to us, appreciating differences between us as humans, and mending fences broken by disagreement or discord. It is never too late to reconcile or to make a concerted effort toward peace, love, and understanding. To best understand ourselves, we need to understand our heritage. We must look inward, make peace within our own souls, and recognize those who have shaped our beings. We all have mothers who have impacted who we are today. We must learn from and grow with the lessons they have shown us. In this volume you will find inspirational pieces by writers and photographers who seek to celebrate these formative lessons. No matter what kind of relationship you have with your own mother, you must understand your past to make your future great. Make time for a better you. Reflect. Hopefully, you will find inspiration within this volume. Be the best you can be.
