I gave you my body,

I gave you my sleep,

I gave you my prayers, my tears, my nights and my days.

There were moments where I felt like I gave you all of me.

Moments where I wondered if there was more of me left of to give to you. 

And in those moment when I felt like I had nothing left to give, I was reminded of what you have given to me. 

You gave me a new perspective, a better way to see the world.

You gave me a new look at time. How its is precious, and how each moment counts.

You gave me a new body, one that is strong and powerful and flawed all at once.

You gave me new faith, one that knows that I can’t do this life on my own strength.

That even thought this is the one of the hardest things I have ever done, it is also of the best things I ever got.

And the love must be full of seasons of giving and moments of receiving. 

You gave me a new name, one that you say over and over, a name with so much meaning and worth.

You gave me a new version of myself, one that is more compassionate caring and hope than the one before.

How do you prefer your coffee?
