Til then, live by your pen.
“Abet, I don’t want you to do anything if your heart isn’t in it.”

Midnight talks with my mom.
 
Everything I’ve ever written has somehow been influenced by my mom. From her little adages, to her unique (sometimes vulgar) sense of humor. Every inspirational poem, every conceptual song, even my sarcasm — everything I write has a little touch of “Norma” in it. Even something as simple as what she told me today. How I shouldn’t be discouraged. How I should count my blessings. How she explained, in her own Norma-esque way, that I should follow my heart.

For anyone who’s ever appreciated one of my posts, or shared one of my YouTube videos: from the bottom of my heart, thank you, but my mom deserves a couple “likes” of her own.
