A Love Note To My Mom
When I was a little girl, I would often accompany you as you modeled for fashion photographers. It was years later that I finally understood what role modelling
36 in your life. Little did I know you were 37 every penny you earned to go to
38 school.
I cannot thank you enough for
39 you told me one autumn afternoon when I was nine. After finishing my homework, I went into the dining room where you were buried
40 piles of law books. I was
41 .Why were you doing what I do—memorizing textbooks and studying for
42 ? When you said you were in law school, I was more puzzled. I didn’t know. Moms could be lawyers too. You smiled and said, “In life, you can do anything you want to do.”
As young as I was, that statement kept
43 in my ears. I watched as you faced the 44 of completing your studies, starting companies with Dad, while still being a
45 and a Mom with five kids. I was exhausted just watching you in action. With your words of wisdom in my youthful mind, I suddenly felt unlimited freedom to dream. My whole world
46 . I set out to live my life filled with
47 , seeing endless possibilities for personal and professional achievements.
Your words became my motto. I constantly found myself in the unique position of being either the first (woman doctor in Maryland Rotary) or one of the few women (chief medical reporters) in my field. I gained strength every time I said , “Yes, I’ll try that.”
Encouraged by your
48 , I have forged ahead (毅然前行) with my life’s journey, less afraid to make mistakes, and
49 meeting each challenge. You did it, and now I’m
50 it. So, get to run. So much to do, so many dreams to live.
