be a better son

My Mum is the most wonderful person I know. She has not had an easy life, her set backs are too numerous to write about but despite all of what life has dished out she has remained true to herself and given her all so that we (children) could rise above our meager surroundings. I often feel guilty when I think of all the times she has helped me out of trouble or been the first one there to lend a shoulder or a warm hug – I cannot say the same. She is a standard bearer of love and magnanimity who puts a lot of us to shame. For her I will try to be a better person.
