WHAT I KNOW FOR SURE

What I know for sure is how BLESSED I AM,
God loves me,
I have to love of a Good Man,
Relationships with my children,
An amazing Grandbaby,
My Sister, my niece, my family-in-love by marriage,
And friends galore,
I am so Blessed and even more GRATEFUL,
What I also know for sure,
Is that if I can have all this,
A really good job,
A growing writing career,
And the ability to have folk listen to what I say,
ANYONE CAN,
I fit a lot of stereotypes,
Single mother,
Lived in the hood, before we knew it was the hood,
But the hood for sure,
When I think about it now,
Umm Umm, umm...
But what I had and knew I had was,
God's Love,
Family Love,
A brain with the discernment to know right from wrong,
And to know that to do anything or be anything,
It was up to me through God's grace,
And that when I messed up,
Only he needed to forgive me,
And the only person I needed to blame was me,
As such,
It made me KNOW FOR SURE,
THAT THROUGH GOD'S GRACE AND BLESSINGS,
THIS SMALL PART OF THE WORLD IS MINE,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!
