"Unstoppable"

Today you are stubborn,
My patience is thin
Today you’ll persist
Until I will give in

Today you are wilful
You’re strong and you’re bold
Today you’ll refuse to do
Things you are told

Today you will follow
Wherever I go
Today you will scream
When my answer is no

Today you are fierce
And today you are wild
Today you’ll remind me
That you are a child

Today every minute
Will seem to last hours
But over the years
I will realise your power

I’ll realise your stubbornness
Means you’re determined
And I’ll admire how you have
Learnt to stand firm and

How you know when
To sit down or step up
So full of conviction,
Self-worth and self-trust

So today you’ll be stubborn
Today you’ll be fierce
Today you’ll have spirit
That must persevere

Today you’re determined
Today you’ll be loud
But tomorrow you’ll lead
From the front of the crowd

And where once you were wild
I want you to stay
I don’t want you quietened,
Silenced or tamed

‘Cause yesterday’s bold
Will soon one day I’m sure
Be a force that our world
Has not known of before

And today you will talk
Of the impossible
But tomorrow I know -
You’ll be unstoppable

If Artificial Intelligence is such a good idea, why wouldn't you pay for the writing you use?

"Words are just sounds and letters until we collectively give them meaning through story. When we use language to connect, it’s one of the most beautiful things that make us human."

To me, a maleta meant family had arrived from Peru, carrying flavors, textures and memories of my birthplace.

My sister uses the word "thunderstruck"

God chuckled the day I articulated, “I can work from any kitchen table with Wi-Fi in the lower 48 states.” My time as a widow had been a dark 6 years—almost 7, years in which my heart and min…
