Some Sweet Day
May 15, 2004

Dear God,

Thank you for letting me swim today. Thank you for letting Jason not get a cold. Thank you for letting Michael’s mom heal, whatever happened. Thank you for everything. I want to thank you for lots more, but writing it down will take days and waste a lot of trees. So I just put it in one word “everything”! I thank you for everything you did, done, and will do. I love God and will always remember.

I was not a selfish person back then. While I did have my share of issues to ask God to fix, I never hesitated to thank Him for the most random of things.
