Treasured Lessons

Our mothers give us so many gifts. 
They give us the precious gift of life, 
of course, but they also leave treasured
lessons that can guide us along our journeys
even when they are no longer with us. ~Maria Shriver


And so our mothers and grandmothers have,
more often than not anonymously, 
handed on the creative spark, the seed 
of the flower they themselves never hoped 
to see - or like a sealed letter they could 
not plainly read. ~Alice Walker
