Dedicated to what was best for me;
Educated by a world made by men.
Cocooning me in the knowledge that
Everyone is equal.
And yet, she never lost the will that drove a
Single mother to try and
Equip the only thing she felt of worth in this world: her
Daughters, who strive to continue in that vein.

In memory of my mother. Would that I had her with me today. She is sorely missed.
