On this day when we are especially thankful for all the blessings that GOD has showered us with, I thought it would be the perfect occasion to address the people and things that I am particularly grateful for (or thankful to).
... To my parents, who brought me into this world and have helped me to become the man I am today. I am nothing without them and they have provided me the opportunities that I have this day. And a special thanks to my mom, who continues to be my rock.
... To my younger brother and big sister, who insist on telling me how much they love me every time we talk. And for also being two of my closest friends.
... To all the rest of my family, who continues to support me through all my endeavors.
... To my close friends, who have given me balance, kept me grounded, and defended me. And for never being afraid to tell me when my sh*t stinks. Most importantly, for listening. (... and blah blah blah Seghen blah, Thanks luv).
... To all the mentors and advocates that have spoken and vouched generously on my behalf, and for helping to put me in the position I am today.
... To all the haters who waste their time hating on me, while I keep my sh*t moving to the top - right where they want to be. No point in saying F*** you because then I'd be stooping to your level, "lame-o" (credit to Ryann W.).
... To the ex(es) for giving me different perspectives on relationships and making me a better partner because of it.
... To YOU, whoever you may be. Whether you are a friend, a hater, a loved one, a stranger or someone that I have yet to meet, I am thanking YOU for what you have given this world and what you have given me either directly or indirectly.
... To my future. Although we may not have met yet, I thank you today because I know that a lifetime will never be enough to show you how grateful I am for you being a part of my life.
... and most importantly, I am thankful to GOD for these people that I have or will encounter on my path to salvation and his calling for me. I am thankful that he gave me the breath I took first this morning and the privilege to live this day. I pray for myself and for you, that you may have tomorrow, another year... a lifetime for which to be thankful for.
Happy Turkey Day!!!
