    Life

    I am truly thankful for life-changing events and life itself. It's amazing when you discover a gift so precious that it makes you see life as if it were brand new; as if you've just been born. I feel like an entire part of my being has awoken from being dormant up until now. I can't express my amazement in words, but I love life. More so than I could have ever imagined.
