They are the lamps on every home and their kindness, their strength and their unconditional love for their children are what made us who we are. I believed that mothers everywhere, as long as they guide their children towards the world through them, then this world where we see chaos and trials will not be too long to witness for we shall be the agents of peace and change. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This photo speaks well of what I understood as our role in the community and the society where we all belong. As a travel blogger from the Philippines, I share in this thoughts through my Journeys posts and those whom I touched have been my inspiration and continue to be my inspiration. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My mother is the lamp unto my world and her influence on me is what anchors me to the ground. I am firmly anchored because of her undying faith in my capacity to make good and her reassuring embrace on those moments I fail the world. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this is a great and poignant photo of how we should see our mothers in our world and the world beyond us.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5589163717692995018/2743554130817430891/comments/default/2093347153372175719'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5589163717692995018/2743554130817430891/comments/default/2093347153372175719'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://momsofamerica.blogspot.com/2011/12/holdthatthought-power.html?showComment=1327651611940#c2093347153372175719' title=''/><author><name>Journeys and Travels</name><uri>http://www.journeysandtravels.com</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://momsofamerica.blogspot.com/2011/12/holdthatthought-power.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5589163717692995018.post-2743554130817430891' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5589163717692995018/posts/default/2743554130817430891' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-413365677'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.displayTime' value='January 27, 2012 3:06 AM'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5589163717692995018.post-6095380047874814486</id><published>2012-01-22T21:57:54.765-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-22T21:57:54.765-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I so agree...I used to wonder whether thoughts or ...</title><content type='html'>I so agree...I used to wonder whether thoughts or words were more powerful.

I have spent a great deal of time reflecting on 2010, and what I hope for in 2011. I&amp;#39;m looking within myself to find my true path. With so many potentials, we have to trust in those quiet moments of connecting with our higher selves, and truly listen. #awareness   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was reminded of a favorite song while reading your post:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?&lt;br /&gt;Can the child within my heart rise above?&lt;br /&gt;Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?&lt;br /&gt;Can I handle the seasons of my life?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;- Stevie Nicks/Fleetwood Mac&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks Debra ღ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~ Misty / @Mysticle</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5589163717692995018/7777306029210213200/comments/default/4246547242456603674'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5589163717692995018/7777306029210213200/comments/default/4246547242456603674'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://momsofamerica.blogspot.com/2011/01/reflections-on-past-year.html?showComment=1303104546532#c4246547242456603674' title=''/><author><name>Mysticle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04089131129057507501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='05466387238396916316'/><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nNmL_fsD_9s/S16bSl7jr0I/AAAAAAAAAlM/oIfP3ObQR7s/S220/MysticleAvatar.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://momsofamerica.blogspot.com/2011/01/reflections-on-past-year.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5589163717692995018.post-7777306029210213200' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5589163717692995018/posts/default/7777306029210213200' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-229748843'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.displayTime' value='April 18, 2011 1:29 AM'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5589163717692995018.post-3597799118851365925</id><published>2011-04-03T15:41:25.366-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-03T15:41:25.366-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Hi Debra,

Parents often judge themselves harshly, and other parents even more so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I broke with tradition by having my children at 41 and 44 (conceived naturally) and I’m aware of the social discrimination older parents are up against simply due to their age. I’m dedicated to providing support to my age group of parents and encouraging more positive social awareness of their strength as mothers and the unique gifts they offer their children. Would you both consider supporting us over-40 moms also?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We’re launching a new campaign to empower women who became moms after 40, or those who are planning to be, called A CHILD AFTER 40, for Mother’s Day 8th May. The video is very revealing and it’s getting a lot of interest!
