This morning, I was at the source…
The source is not a place, but a heart. A woman born around 1925.
I went to recharge beside my grandmother, that woman with a heart of gold — the one who held me in her arms after my mother’s death, when I was just a three-year-old child.
She is my living memory, my moral compass, my refuge.
Sitting beside her, I didn’t just hear words — I drank from a fountain of wisdom.
She always reminds me of this truth that follows me like a law of life :
« You never sell your dignity — not for food, not for money. Dignity is your true self. »
This morning again, I left with a full heart — rich with a wealth that no one can steal.
Thank you, Grandmother, for reminding me that the greatest victory is to remain dignified, always.
