12th March 1973

​12th March 1973 at 5:30pm, 
At St Thomas hospital, the time and date I was born,
How on heavens am I still alive at 53? 
God is this from you? Or is this from me?

Thank you God for still keeping me alive, 
How on earth have I’ve been able to survive?

I am here nevertheless, 
Serving an almighty Father who I know far best. 

Faced grief, angst, victory, addiction and ample losses 
I thank you Lord for allowing me to get this far in life, 
I made it through addictions, chronic illness and other strife. 

Today I am here, which I am grateful
Thank you as I remain ‘work in progress’ and attempting to keep my eyes on God, my forever fateful.
