Today is My 55th Birthday

AND I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SAY A FEW THINGS.
To all who are in my life right now, to all who have come back into my life, to all who are no longer a part of my life, and to all who have yet to arrive in my life – thank you for your gifts of friendship, insights, and passions you have shared with me, I would not be who I am today without all of you. I am truly humbled by the impact you have had on my life journey. And to those I have hurt or disappointed – I am truly sorry and I ask your forgiveness.

MY BIRTHDAY WISH FOR ALL OF YOU:
My wish is that your own personal life journey
continues to be as rewarding and challenging as mine.
That the dark, difficult and confusing moments,
only make the joyous and peaceful moments,
more precious and memorable.
And that you continue to have the courage
to share your own uniqueness, passions, creativity,
and dreams with a world that needs them,
as your life journey unfolds in front of you.

TO MY PARENTS:
Thank you for the gift of my birth day and setting me on this life journey.

TO MY WIFE AND CHILDREN:
Thank you for making this life journey so joyous and rewarding by your honesty and humorous support. Yes, I like donuts!

Thanks for taking the time to read this and bless you all.
Now go out and enjoy my birthday, I know I will.
