My Tribute to my mother:
Granite, a notoriously hard stone, often symbolizes strength and resilience. My mother was just like granite. No matter what life threw her way, she remained unwavering, pressing forward with unwavering determination. She frequently reminded me that problems can't be avoided; they must be confronted head-on. Just as a rock is shaped by time and the elements, my mother was gradually worn down by life's challenges. Yet, even in her final days, she continued to strive forward with remarkable tenacity.
