Count your blessings


Wearing: Top by my mum, Bracelet COS, Pants H&M.
From the moment I was born that has been a very special women present in my life. My mother. Now we all have love for our mothers, as they have carried us and taken care of us our entire lives. But today I simply feel like sharing how I admire my mother, who is such a magnificent person. She has been a huge influence in my life and still is. My mum has never lived an easy life, she had to flee her country of origin due war and didn't have the financial means to continue studying after high school. Nevertheless she carried through all struggles with grace and really made something of herself. She is one of the main reasons why I want to accomplish my dreams, as she never got the chance. I have never met anyone who is so patient and caring as my mother. Aside from all of that, she is extremely creative, she often takes my photos and designs my closet, as for this top which is also her design. I can go on and on about how much she means to me but the point I want to make here is that we are so blessed nowadays to be able to study and pursue any dreams we have. Whenever you are in a bad place, remind yourself that there is always someone going through the same or worse. Try to find positive things of the situation and seek comfort to those who are closest. Use these experiences to grow stronger, we can accomplish so much in life.
