Mom hadn't met Ramon; her advocacy was more arm's length - petitions, the website, letter writing, meetings with politicians. Her friend Hanna had formed a close friendship with Ramon though, visiting him as often as she could. Hanna told me that Ramon's greatest regret was that he wouldn't get to see his daughter grow up. And Jeremy's dad, who had that opportunity, was just throwing it away. It made me furious, and I couldn't let it go. Robin Stevenson
About This Quote

I love this quote because it shows how Hanna was trying to manifest Ramon's daughter into reality. She was doing everything that she could to have Ramon's daughter come into the world. She was getting Ramon out of jail, helping him get a lawyer, and she was even trying to get Ramon's ex-wife back together with him. She was trying to use her own energy to help Ramon have his daughter, but unfortunately, it wasn't working.

This made Hanna so sad because she wanted so badly for Ramon to be a father. So if this is what you want, take action! Ask for your dreams today!
