I am grateful for you,
for every sunrise you rise to meet,
for each step you take toward dreams,
even when the night felt endless,
and hope was dim.

Thank you, for every quiet moment
you chose kindness over blame,
for how you held steady
when the storms came,
and trusted your strength to carry you through.

You work so hard,
building a life with bare hands,
molding your future
from lessons and losses,
from grit and grace.

I am grateful for your courage,
the way you’ve let wounds heal into wisdom,
the way you face fear and wear it down,
your voice growing stronger
with every hardship you’ve turned into growth.

You are resilience in motion,
a story of perseverance
that unfolds with each new chapter.
Thank you for believing in possibility,
for becoming someone you’re proud to be.

And as you journey forward,
know that I am grateful for every choice
that’s led you here,
to a life of purpose, strength, and joy—
to a life that is uniquely yours.
