I wonder if this was where you thought life would take you.
Did you think you’d be cutting the lawn to pick up all the leaves,
Glancing over to see a teenage girl playing with a beautiful mutt you saved from the pound?
Did you see yourself here?
Did you see yourself saving helpless baby birds every early spring and late summer?
Did you think you’d be force-feeding their fragile frames to keep them alive,
Showing compassion or even the tiniest of all creatures?
Did you see yourself here?
Did you see yourself making dinner each and every night,
For an ungrateful (at times) family that had no idea how much they needed you?
Did you think you’d put so much effort into making them happy?
Did you see yourself here?
Did you know this was what you were to become?
One of the most caring, creative, enduring individuals in the world.
Did you know?

This is about you, am I right? And I like it. It's weird to look at isn't it? Seeing where you're at and wondering if it's where you wanted to be, looking back and wondering if you'd ever expected any of this.
It's about my mom =]
