Mother's Day Is Everyday

Mother's Day Is Every Day

This is as always a tribute to you, so that you are loved every moment of the day. We wish to remind you that your grace and strength are held in high regard, and your wisdom is reflected upon and used in our lives every day. And as a great queen, you have and will continue to serve humanity well.

To our great-grandmothers, grandmothers, our own mothers and sisters, wives, daughters, nieces, companions and friends:

As weak men and fools, we thank you with sorrow, disobedience, pain, assault and battery, robbery, rape, and even murder. We even abuse your children with neglect. Our weak minds were lost in the streets at the time to understand your need for our help as men at home. Things became so difficult for you until you looked inward for your strength. Your loneliness helped you discover your ability to fly you where you was strong enough to do without us. We are sorry we left you to do our part as well as your own. I will pick up the slack when freedom knocks on my door. So until then, stay strong for me.

I'm sorry we was not man enough to look past our selfish ways!
