Never Left My Side

Everyone has a constant in their life that makes them feel comforted, joyous, and safe. When you're having a stressful day and just want to break down, everyone has that certain thing they go to. It may be a person, a object, or even a quote. Each and every person just has something to comfort them. In The Good Earth, Wang Lung had a constant in his life. He went from being a poor farmer to a rich man. In the end he never gave up his land. No matter where he was in his life he never lost his land. He kept it and always had the land to rely on and come back to. My constant in life would have to be my mother. I know we disagree on mostly everything and I don't always agree with what she does but I know she will always be there. I have experienced her trustworthiness more than ever this year. Beginning high school has been a roller coaster for me. I have been introduced to situations I've never been in before. My mom always gives the best advice and sticks by my side. We argue all the time but in the end we always end up making up. I know she just does what she thinks is best because she is always expressing her love for me. I realize most teenage girls don't have a mom to comfort them and turn to. As I become older I realize the privilege it is to have a mom that really does love and care about me.There isn't a day that goes by where I don't thank God for what he has blessed me with.
