As I look back along the path of my life.
There has always been the blessing of someone
uniquely different, yet essentially the same as myself.
We are bound by a bond continually strengthened,
that neither time nor distance can break.
It is formed from every act of faith, hope and love,
willingly accepted and shared throughout our lives.
All that you are, I receive, which in turn inspires me to be
much more than I am. Without your contribution
my world would be diminished. Thank you for sharing
the gift of your self with me.
