some say I’m selfish, some say I’m eager, some say I’m strong, some say I’m lovely and all these are true. it just depends how bad my life challenges me, bc when it does I always fight back, no matter of what. I’m tough

when I was little I always thought it’s gonna be easier when I grow up, I thought this way bc I always seen my mom strong, and so I thought if I get older I won’t be crying as well, I won’t have breakdowns for a week or so, but I never known that she did cry as well but I just haven’t seen those tears. As I get older she lets her tears and emotions, and it didn’t get easier, the departure is still tough as 5 or 10 years ago. it’s tough, and no matter how powerful my mind is, my heart gets touched and I have the same feelings as when I was little. I haven’t seen her for three years and these 2.5 weeks were amazing, I loved shopping with her although I’m not a fan, I loved giving her small gifts and taking her to different places, I liked drinking wine at midnight and having cheese and endless talks, I liked explaining how my prep will look in the near future and what kind of bikini I have in mind, I liked to share my dream and what I have in my heart, I loved coming back home from the gym and seeing her there❤️, I liked having coffee with her and late breakfast at yorkville, she likes burgers and hate risotto at cibo, she likes morning espresso’s and never takes americano while she walks outside, she likes to shop and doesn’t like museums, she likes to be next to me while I train bc she knows how important it is to me, she takes pics for my insta and hugs me often, and I can’t wait to see her again so we can put all these things on repeat.

I love you mom ❤️ @ Toronto Pearson International Airport
