  1. She made me stronger<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  2. She gave me the gift of wanting to help heal others or help them heal themselves<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  3. I learned that hope and personal power can get us through anything<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  4. She formed me into a seeker of the truth<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  5. I learned what unconditional love looks like (and doesn’t look like)<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  6. I learned to have a discerning eye and appreciate beauty<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  7. The gift of heightened awareness\/intuition<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  8. Drive and persistence to succeed<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  9. I learned to work hard and get past, over and through my pain<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  10. The value of learning to trust myself and my intuition<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  11. Learning not to fear or worry about the future… strong faith<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \n\t<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
    What gifts and lessons did you get from your mother?<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/div>\n
