What About Me? Part 2

I tried to update my Facebook profile today with my new "About Me" section information.  For some reason, it won't let me save the new text.  It allowed me to delete the old one, however.  Until they fix the bug, I'll publish my new "About Me" here in the meanwhile.  Here it is:


I feel it's time to update my about me section.  Change is constant.  Change is necessary.  There are things about me that still fit into that old about me description.  However, things in general have evolved, hence the need to update this section.  So, what about me?
I'm a proud mom.  I love being a mom.  I revere the opportunity of having been chosen to be my daughter's mom.  To her dad, I'm eternally grateful.  After becoming a mom, life has made more sense.  A connection with a Greater Power deepened and I can feel it every time I look into my child's eyes.  After becoming a mom, I worked harder to find  my true passions.  I decided I wanted to live a life of examples.  I discovered that motherhood, writing and inspiring are my three most esteemed activities.  For now, for this unfolding moment, there's nothing I'd rather do.  
After becoming a mom, I learned the meaning of unconditional love.  I learned that my mom is exceptional.  I also learned that in order to be the best mom I can be to my daughter, I have to love me first.  I have learned to invest a percentage of the love I have for her in myself - it's a win-win situation all the time.  I learned that I will never be a perfect mom, and I finally learned to be okay with that.  
There was no way I could leave the old about me section up, unchanged, when every atom in my body has metamorphosed.  This caterpillar is finally becoming a butterfly.
