My Mother is a silent warrior. You can hardly see the effects of raising five children on a forty-foot boat on her face. No marks from her great sacrifice remain; just the same gentle spirit and soft smile that melt days of tension from your weary shoulders. Her unyielding belief in me has given me wings. I am a rocket scientist because she taught me to believe in myself. I am a loving wife because she taught me to forgive. Now I am a blissful mother because she taught me to be grateful.
About Me
- Tilan Langley
- I was born in Puerto Rico in the small town of San German. I grew up on a sailing boat on the beautiful Caribbean seas. My parents, both from New England, moved there so my father could teach Biophysics and write books. When I was 11 years old we left the shelter of Boqueron Bay for a life of persistent travel. From the coast of Portugal to the busy streets of Tokyo, I was immersed in art and culture. Though I am trained in physics my heart is in being a good Mom, painting, writing and teaching.
