When I was searching for a site to publish at little did I know that I would find some wonderful people that I now think of as family. Chan is one of them, and what is more amazing about our friendship is that it started out with me being offended and leaving a comment to spout off on one of Chan’s articles. The grace that it was handled with was the beginning of something remarkable. Normally if I do not agree with a writer, I just move on. What made me leave that comment that day? I truly believe that it was God’s hand.
Happy birthday, my dear Chan
I am glad I took a stand
And opposed your words long ago
I found a sibling in a foe
Words I thought were meant to hurt
Talked of women who like to flirt
But those words hid a heart of gold
The most precious to behold
Many times I found words so wise
They were magic to my eyes
Thoughtfulness beyond compare
In my sibling do I share
A shoulder to lean on when I tire
A hand to lift me from the fire
A push to spur me in my quest
The day I met you, I was blessed
Happy birthday, my dear Chan,
I am glad I took a stand!
