Listen, My Son

Listen, My Son Steve L. Siegel July, 2015 ~:~ My son, don’t tell me that you’re not important! That is simply wrong and not ever going to be true The fact that you even was born Should give you proof that God has plans for you. ~:~ The pathway may seem unclear to you right now But one day, soon I hope, you’ll see That God has plans for you all along And you were truly meant be part of this life. ~:~ God has already written the book that is your life That is the thing you need to know my son Each and every day that you are living This book was written for you a long time ago. ~:~ Oh my son, know that God does not write duds He only writes the best sellers So be proud of what and who you are Because in Gods book you are the star. ~:~ I know that, so does God! If you need help don’t feel lost You can call either one of us And we’ll be there help you out. ~:~

Steven, this is such a wonderful piece addressed to your beloved son that shows the importance of expressing our love to those who mean so much to us. Many times we fail simply because we didn't utter those simple words that are so powerful and can make the difference in the lives of our loved ones! Well done, my friend. It's a 7! Warmest regards.

My men's group talked about us men not saying those three little words because we might make them feel we are not strong men, that is why I wrote it for him. Thank you
