Thank You

For the moments when you are reminded why you are here.

Thank you for the pain.
Thank you for the sun and the rain.
For the laughter and the tears.
For courage and my biggest fears.
For being so strong and yet so weak.
For my sharp tongue, but also the times you make me so humble and meek.
For the gains and the loss.
For you, my father, remind me that I am here because you paid the cost.
