We all have awesome moms, but the most awesome moms of all , are those super bad-ass single moms, who have to be both the mom and the dad. These are the ones who can say no without batting an eye, have the best surprises and give the best hugs. And oh boy to they have the warmest smiles. Here’s 10 things I learned being raised by a single mother.
You can never stop learning. Every situation is an opportunity for a lesson learned whether good or bad. You’re never too old to learn something new or to start a new dream.
Take yourself to the movies, buy yourself dinner and/or a scoop of ice cream. If you don’t appreciate and take care of yourself first, how will you know how others should treat you?
Have a good cry every now and again. Its okay to cry to laugh, to be angry as long as you don’t let it over take you.
Ask for help when you need it and when you want it. If it it neither of those, ask for help so that that you in return learn to help others.
Such as setting up your own entertainment center, changing your oil, and tires and pumping your own gas. Installing your own cable and haggling for the best deal at that. Learning how to depend on you for whatever you need and want.
When traveling alone, it is up to you to lift that suitcase in the vehicle. If you want to warm up that food, you need to carry that microwave in the house by yourself. If you get a brand new bed set, you gotta set up that bad boy yourself, if you want to sleep good tonight.
Reading is a privilege and a luxury. Whether you read in print form (those old fashion page turners) or in digital form, sit down and take your mind on an adventure. The right book can take you to Paris, Rome, or even to the beach with the sharks and starfish.
If you want to be a horse, go for it, a princess or prince, do ya thing, or even the President of the United States, it can be done.
So important you will always want to sleep in after an awesome night before. You might be in the middle of an awesome dream and want to finish and capture your prize. Or maybe you want to take advantage of the free breakfast.
Always be open to it, no matter how many times it doesn’t give it back to you. Once it comes appreciate it and always give it back freely. Love yourself hard so that others can see what true love looks like.
