It would only be right for me to honor my mother on the first day of me celebrating members of my family for Black History Month. My mom Debra should be a study in perseverance. From dealing with being a single mom of a physically challenged child, to going through and escaping abuse to raising her head above those who aimed to demean and oppress her my mother stood tall and kept walking.
Showing me what strength looks like and what getting through dark moments look like, my mom epitomized what the phrase “Let God” means. My mom is caring, giving and constantly shows me why it’s important to always keep your family close. My mother has taught me what forgiveness means and she has taught me what true love feels like. I credit her for making sure I truly appreciated the value of family. Today on the first day of Black History Month, I recognize and honor my mother Debra Elaine Wideman.
