A Life's Sacrifice

"A mother's love!  
What can compare with it!
Of all things on earth, 
it comes nearest to divine love in heaven.
A mother's love means a life's devotion 
- and sometimes a life's sacrifice - 
with but one thought, 
one hope and one feelings, 
that her children will grow up healthy and strong, 
free from evil habits and able to provide for themselves."
