(repost from friendster blog) My hero

I once chatted with a friend about my mentors and how they challenge me to become a better person and how they inspired me to grow and to create a better future not only for myself but also for those who are around me; I mentioned my pastor(N Centino), Joel Osteen, J Maxwell, R Thomson and all the like.

Then my friend asked me, "What about your mom? Is she also your mentor". I was a bit shock for about 10 milliseconds to the question but I finally got hold of myself and searched within my heart who is my mom in my life... then I told my friend that she isn't my mentor bcoz she is more than that.. she more than mold my life.. she created my life.. she nurtured my life.. put it back together when it was shattered.. hold it together when storms tried to shake it.. feed it.. literally feed it.. and gave her own life just to make sure that my life will live and strive and grow and have a better future than what she had. - She is my hero.

To my friend who asked the question (you know who you are).. thank you. You made me think a well even in a split second. I appreciated my mom more and have acknowledge her more. I thank the Lord I have such a mom.

I wish my mom is in to computer so she can read this blog but she isn't. I will just tel her personally.. well I think I already told her but probably I'll tell her again.. so that she wont forget that she is a hero and she is very special.
