Overcome [n.m]

Dedication

This book is proudly dedicated to Mirna Taylor.

In memory of

The woman who gave me hope.
The woman who taught me to love, even if the person wasn't loving me back.

A godly, selfless woman.

The woman who encouraged me to never give up on my dreams constantly.
The woman who bugged the shit out to me to stay in school just because she knew I was better than the decisions I was making.
The woman who always, without a doubt, talked me into chasing my dreams no matter how high.
The woman who opened her home and heart to me.
The woman who would sacrifice her own for anyone in need, friend, stranger or enemy.
The woman who took care of me like her own child.

I didn't appreciate you as much as I should have.
You've played such a huge role in the woman I have become today even from just knowing you five years.
You taught me that a woman doesn't need a man to feel secure. As women, we are capable of so much more than people think.

You were the light at the end of my tunnel.

You told me I could finish this book, and I did. For you.

What a beautiful soul.

RIH.
