I not only heard her say that, but I saw her treat every human with the respect they deserve. sometimes we’re up, sometimes we’re down. sometimes we’re just being. and I’m so happy my mom taught me to treat every human and animal with love and respect and kindness-ALWAYS-as is. and more than anything I hope I inherit her open heart and beautiful soul. sorry I was a shitty little teenager. I didn’t get it. I love you and would be lucky to be half as magical as you. Happy Mother’s Day, mom. thanks for making me, me.” (Photo: Kesha via Instagram)
