Thanking God for the good things in my life despite my brain diseases and how I am reborn again at the age of 31 in November of 2001, after my serious suicide attempt, the first of two. I am not reborn again as of "seeing the light of God", I am just reborn again as in seeing things differently! I did well until December 2002.

I thank God
for the balance of my mental, physical, spiritual and emotional health. God has given me a good
understanding and healthy brain despite my diseases of it. I thank God for my peaceful spirit.

I thank God
for the talent and creativity that I
have within my spirit.

I thank God
for the love of my family and friends in Texas and my official home of Missouri always in spirit.

I thank God
for answering some of my prayers and giving me the peace of mind that comes with those answered prayers.

I thank God
for each new day that I get up and that I am ALIVE!

I thank God
for the wonderful life that I have started living at age 31 finally. I am reborn again! Thank you for blessing me with the talent to write poetry and short-stories.

I Thank you God.
