Every time I get ready to embark on a new journey, I go through a pruning process. It's quite painful, but necessary for growth. During this unavoidable process, my mother was good for encouraging me to stay in it. Missing her, "Baby, you can do it!" Every night, I search my dreams for her. I long to hear those words again. Missing her like crazy this morning. I know it's NO coincidence that I'm graduating on Mother's Day! I'm pretty sure that she had a lot to do with that. Receiving my Masters....on that day, will be my gift to her! I'm staying in it, Babe. #StayInIt #PruningProcess #RaffealsNextChapter #Searsly #AMothersLove #Mommasboy #GriefSucks #TheHardPart #DenineSears #GoodMourningRa #DreamDoing #OperationGetThatMasters #ForHer
