The Thank You Prayer

Dear God,

Thank you so much for the life that you have given me.
If it were'nt for all the deaths that I have seen in my entire life,
I wouldn't know how important life is
If it weren't for all the sacrifices that I had to render,
I wouldn't know how good the taste of victory is
If it weren't for all the pain,
I wouldn't know how to change direction and turnaway from the things that's hurting me
If You weren't always there for me,
I wouldn't know where to turn to
In times of distress
I love that you have made the world imperfect,
It's imperfections only made it so wonderful

And to add up:
I thank You Papa God for giving me my Tatay and my Nanay
Thank you for giving me Mirasol for my sister
