For the people that laugh with me, when I laugh about anything
For the people who see me when I don’t see myself,
For the people who believe me, if I don’t believe it myself yet,
For the people who help me, when I need help,
For the people who hear me, even when I have nothing to say,
For the people who give me confidence, even if I’ve lost it for a while,
For the people who take me out of my comfort zone when I’m scared,
For the people who love me, even when I don’t feel loveable,
For the people who are a light, when it’s dark,
For the people who took care of me when I couldn’t take care of myself,
For the people who light my fire again, if it seems extinguished,
For the people who are not honest, so that I be even more honest,
For the people who taught me grief, so that I learned to cry,
For the people who are merciless, so that I learn to be loving,
For the people who don’t tell the truth so I can find my own truth,
For the people who see me at my best, when I feel at my worst,
For the people who lift me up, when I’ve fallen,
For the people who spend time with me because I know you’ll never get that time back, it’s the most precious thing we’ve got,
For the people who share with me so that everything can multiply,
For the people who give me a push in the back, when I seem to stand still,
For the people who accept me completely for who I am, even if I find something difficult to accept some things of myself
Thanks to the people who hurt me, you have given me so much, you were the gifts in disguise, and no matter how painful it was, I am grateful, I learned so much from you. The pain I may have felt made me grow, learn new ways and appreciate every good thing in life even more.
You all have kept me going and growing, and not giving up even when I wanted to quit. You have been my fuel.
I couldn’t have done it without you, and I would never have come this far.
If I can go this far, I can go much further.
From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
