“I never thought I’d see the day…” – Sade.
Here I am and it is wonderful
I accomplished this ALL on my own
I worked hard to get where I am and look at what I’ve done
I was always doubting myself
I was always in denial about what I could achieve
But I’ve conquered it
What I didn’t know, I asked
What I thought would hurt actually didn’t
What I thought didn’t make sense ended up being the best decisions for me
I am not going to apologize for being a go getter
I am not going to apologize for being well spoken, intelligent, and worldly
Most High there aren’t anymore ways for me to say thank you
But it is truly a blessing and a pleasure to be apart of you
I couldn’t have done any of this without you
Here I am
Here we are
Thank you
I am committed to my success
The success of my chosen, supportive, and positive family
The success of my education
The success of loving myself and accepting that I live an alternative lifestyle
The success of my personal growth
The success of accepting my past and moving forward
The success of having every bitter, ugly moment turn into laughter
The success of realizing that I am so much better
Thank you.
