Importance of Thanks

In my heart there is a prayer no longer for myself.

It is in Maasai Land I realise my great wealth.

I closed my eyes wanting to talk to my father but came to a complete stop.

My words of choice I started to take stock.

No longer could I go about my usual way to this conversation.

It was the beginning of a new chapter in my life sort of like a convocation.

 

I realized what needed to be said most was usually left for last.

This situation can be likened to a pilot taking an airplane off the ground without first filling it with gas.

The end is inevitable, the beginning a big mistake.

So now like Moose, I find myself picking up the pieces of constant breaking plates. Thank you in the end is all I could say,

My father has taught me an important element for any successful relationship today.
