too often in our lives we forget to acknowledge and thank the people and forces that shape us, make us, build us and even those that beak us. we always end up wanting to say thank you when it is too late. we fail to realise that there is no other time, there is only now.
so here is my constantly growing list:
to the is, for being
to those who taught me that giving is better than receiving, thus shaping a keystone of my belief system, my parents
to my sisters, for being so protective over me, it taught me that i am valuable
to my brothers, for guiding me through my experiences, it taught me to be my own man
to my aunts and uncle, for being pillars of wisdom
to joe, for being a positive role model with great character and real life mistakes and lessons
to lorraine, for all the love,support and encouragement, you inspired me to do something with my life
to rashid, for being a spiritual beacon and soundboard
to my cousins, for keeping it real at all times
to my nieces and nephews, may you learn life's lessons with humility and accept the wisdom that comes with them
to my god children, you keep me honest in everything i do
to denise,for helping me grow and share who i am, for believing in the possiblility of who i can be
to the word, for finding me and reminding me of my purpose
