Vanessa and Natalia Bryant on Kindness, Strength, and Their Mother-Daughter Friendship

People may not remember what you did

or may not remember what you said,

but they'll remember how you made them feel.

And so that's the lesson that I've always taken,

I've carried throughout my life.

You're the strongest person I've ever known.

We connect on a whole different level

and I feel like that's rare

in mother-daughter relationships.

I wish that I had someone like you when I was growing up.

You're like the constant North Star to all your friends.

Anything handwritten and meaningful from your heart

is the best gift.

I think the way you go about life and you always look

for the positive side in any situation,

you taught that to me at a young age

and I've always carried that with me.

[Vanessa] You always try to find the goodness in people

and in every situation, so I admire that.

[Natalia] You've always been my rock my entire life.

[Vanessa] That's what I really, really cherish.
