Changing my perspective

Thank you mom
For choosing my dad
For giving me life
For giving me perspective
For challenging me
For pushing me to want to do better than what I was seeing
For showing me the toxic traits I want to avoid
For forcing me to find mother figures in different places so I had lots of people and perspectives to learn from
For the inconsistencies that made me become consistently tougher
Thank you for all the lessons on what not to be
You turned out to be a better teacher than a mother.
