HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM: A TRIBUTE TO THE WOMAN WHO GAVE ME EVERYTHING

Today is my mother’s birthday. The woman who rises before the sun, who braves the cold, the fatigue, and the silence of empty streets while the world still sleeps.

She doesn’t ask for much — just the simple chance to work hard, to serve with kindness, and to make sure those she loves have everything they need.

As a cleaner, she faces long, tiring days that leave her physically spent… yet she carries on, always with a smile, always with grace, even when life hands her every reason not to. But I know her heart. Her heart is simple — yet it is unimaginably big, holding more love, compassion, and strength than anyone could fathom.

Most days, she comes home exhausted, ready to collapse into bed. But just a “thank you,” a kind word, or a moment of respect can change her entire day, filling it with joy that can’t be measured.

So today, I’m asking for something special:

If this post reaches you, please leave her a birthday wish. You have no idea how much it would mean to her — to the woman who has spent her life making sure everyone else is taken care of, while asking for so little in return.

Happy birthday, Mom. May God bless you with health, happiness, and the same love you give to everyone else — may you finally feel the warmth of all the love you spread every single day. Thank you for everything.

You are my hero.
