Block 81

Courage
I have been blessed
with the 
courage
to be myself.

Not everyone 
can say this . . .
but I can.

I have had
a moral compass
by which 
I have lived my life.

My choices
have not always
been that 
of the norm.
but
they have been 
the choices
that have 
allowed me
to survive
in my world.

Like the lyrics say,
"I did it my way."

Dear Lord,
Thank you for placing me in a family that taught me how to be myself and be happy with myself. Sometimes, in later life, this wasn't always accepted. But, you gave me the courage to stay the course and I am happy with the way my life has turned out.

Amen
