Mama's Voice

How many times do you hear your mother's voice in your head?

Probably more than once her voice says,

"Don't compare yourself with others."

She probably even says, "You are wonderful just as you are."

Sometimes our mother's voice helps.

And sometimes other voices help, too.

I like this one:

"I am the daughter in whom God is well pleased,"

(from  Iyanla Vanzant  on my once favorite show Starting Over).

What's your mantra?
