I remember those late college nights, the textbooks blurring, the future's weight a physical burden. Exhausted, I’d call home, and Mom would just listen. No lectures, no easy fixes. Just her steady, comforting presence, a quiet anchor in the storm. She didn't offer grand advice, but her unspoken belief in me, a palpable force, was the lifeline I desperately needed. One night, I confessed I was breaking. She simply said, 'Keep going, my love. You've got this.' And I did. Her unwavering strength, her endless patience, built me, brick by emotional brick. She taught me resilience wasn’t about never falling, but always knowing someone was there to help you stand back up. She is, and always will be, the quiet hero of my story.
