To each person who took away my possessions and uprooted me: THANK YOU
You set me free from the life I thought I was supposed to live
Nudged me on a path to who I am today

To each person who cheated, lied, and decieved me:
THANK YOU
You awakened me from a dangerous slumber
Prodded me to see the reality of my fantasy

To each person who bullied and threatened me:
THANK YOU
You made me appreciate my own gentle soul
Encouraged me to show even more compassion for others

To each and every person who taught me painful lessons:
THANK YOU
I have already lost everything
No thing can be taken away from me
No thing can break me
I feel no pain
I only feel the bliss of freedom

Thank You For Making Me Suffer
