Grant that this day and everyday hence
I shall use this space in pursuit of sharing
the kind of sharing that comes about with healing
As a father I strive to be present and strong for my children
As a husband I seek the courage to share my fears and tears with my mate
As a voice for adoption I strive to remember that loving, positive relationship in all it’s forms is the key to world salvation
As a child of God I pray for the understanding that comes of Grace
Walking along the road to family we often are side tracked and blind sided by the diversions that life sometime offers
we begin to wonder about our roles and the values that we place on the experiences of life
I find that the most profound answers come to me when I stop whatever I am doing and listen to the sounds of wisedom
Today I make a promise to today
the promise that while I work for my money
I shall also remember why I do the work
