A mother's love is unmatched. As we navigate the ups-and-downs of our own lives, it can be easy to take our mothers for granted, not truly grasping the weight of the sacrifices they made so that we can live our best lives.

One Somali girl certainly made sure that her mother's efforts weren't in vain.

Meet Ramla Tyrow, who posted the following video of her mother's reaction to her recent graduation, when she secured her B.Sc. degree in Psychology and Counseling:

Mama you ran from a civil war so I could be safe & get the education you didn't. Today you cried when you saw me in my robe. Did it for you???? pic.twitter.com/BKva3yUbTG— Ramla Bkchatldn ✨ (@Ramla_Ty) July 13, 2017

That's right, Mama escaped an entire civil war for this moment. Seeing her daughter cop that desired robe encapsulated every bit of the work she did to ensure her daughter received the education she was never afforded at her age. And it was beautiful.

Ramla described her mother as "bulletproof" who maintained a "golden" heart "through all the pain and sacrifice."

And that is how, dear Blavity fam, Ramla and her mama took us all on a "feel trip."

I can only imagine the stories, the hardship and the life before this. What a lovely moment. https://t.co/GYewT0OQlY— lisamarks (@lisamarks) July 14, 2017

The moment was also a testament to the importance of refugee support:

This is why we should be welcoming everyone who is fleeing war and persecution, this makes us a better country, this makes us stronger xxx— david dutton (@1967DD) July 14, 2017

This is really it. Parents fled war, left home and settled in a foreign land, adapted to a different society for the future of their kids.???????? https://t.co/qPwE7wRkwk— Mina ???????? (@minashoots) July 14, 2017

Ramla's now-alma-mater, Middlesex University, even officially joined in the cheering:

This is lovely from BSc Psychology & Counselling student Ramla Tyrow #MDXgrad17 #FeelGoodFriday https://t.co/gyvCTWpIbt— Middlesex University (@MiddlesexUni) July 14, 2017

Congrats to Ramla and an extended congrats to her mama! Without your motherly magic, she wouldn't be where she is today. We salute you.
