Thank you God for giving me the gift of 'gab' even though i do not seem to show it in my letters to you. 

Thank you God for giving me the strength to turn away from those I would gladly engage in a fight based on their treatment of me in previous days.

Thank you God for sustaining us and showing me windows even though I know i can not jump through them at this time.  Those windows show me a possible future that i feel i do not have at many times.  However, those windows show me hope, which at many times i do not have.
