The Letter

Heavenly father...
This letter is long over due.
I give you all praise...
An most definitely thank you

I thank you for sparing 
my life.
The motorcycle accident &
the doctors thought I wouldn't 
make it through the night.

Surely I'm a favorite...
An I feel compel to bless
others.
Loving the human race
& my siblings from another
mother.

Thanks for making me the man that I am today.
A intelligent brother that's capable of compassion in many ways.

Thanks for giving me insight
& the wisdom to know right from
wrong.
An giving me a second chance
at life & changing the path I was
on.

So many blessings & so many more to come.
I've changed my focus & made you
number one.

Humbled, but yet hungry as I strive to do better.
I love you with all my heart & that's the reason why I've written this
letter.
Thank you, God.
