My dear 'little' brother Joe!!
I have no idea how you react to birthdays?? Knowing you, they don't phase you in the slighest. But if this one finds you a little ruffled-if you are beginning to feel your mortality a little bit more... Know this:
1. There are at least two people in this world that you would die for.
2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way.
3. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.
4. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
5. You mean the world to someone.
6. You are special and unique.
7. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you.
8. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.
9. When you think the world has turned its back on you take another look.
10. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks.
and always remember...
'Whenever God closes one door he always opens another-even though sometimes, it's hell in the hallway!'
I so love and admire you dear bro!! I shake my head in awe and wonder at the person you have become. The world is so much a better place because you are in it. I just so wish that we could see more of each other. Its not fair that you live only a few hours away, and we see each other only a handful of times a year. Its NOT ENOUGH!!
Remember this:
"Happiness keeps you sweet, trials keep you strong, sorrows keep you human, life keeps you humble, success keeps you glowing, but only God keeps you going!!!" Amen Brother!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
