A Love Note To My Mom

When I was a little girl, I would often follow you as you modeled (做模特) for fashion magazine. It was years later that I finally understood what role modeling    in your life. I know little that you were      every penny you earned to go to        school.

I cannot thank you enough for   you told me one autumn afternoon when I was nine. After finishing my homework, I wandered into the dining room where you were buried    piles of law books. I was      .Why were you doing what I do—memorizing textbooks and studying for     ? When you said you were in law school, I was more puzzled. I didn’t know Moms      be lawyers too. You smiled and said,“In life, you can do anything you want to do.”

Though I was young, your words kept      in my ears. I watched as you faced the      of completing your studies, starting companies with Dad, while still being a      and a Mom of five kids. I was tired just watching you      . With your wise words in my       mind, I suddenly felt free to dream. My whole world     . I set out to live my life filled with      , seeing endless possibilities for personal achievements.

Your words became my motto. I      found myself in the position of being either the first (woman doctor in Maryland Rotary)       one of the few women (top medical reporters) in my field. I gained strength every time I said , “Yes, I’ll try that.”

 Encouraged by your      , I have forged ahead (毅然前行) with my life’s journey, less afraid to make mistakes, and       meeting each challenge. You did it, and now I’m      it. Sorry, got to run. So much to do, so many dreams to live.
