You have a mother,
So does she.
Her mother has a mother,
And we come from a long line
Of people who survived
Long enough to breed,
To intermarry and intertwine,
And you were born for such a time as this.

Remember you have ancestors,
The good, the bad,
The ugly, the beautiful,
The mums and the dads.
Dig deep into your unique DNA,
Look straight into the eyes of this very minute,
And see the beautiful place that you hold in it,
And say to yourself,
"I was born for such a time as this."
