Array ( [sid] => 36479 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Thank you, God [time] => 2004-02-26 18:30:39 [hometext] => A product of an epiphany [bodytext] => Feeling low, you count your blessings.
Count the blessings that your lord gave you.
I shall do the same here.

Thank you, God
For blessing me with a curse
which forbids me from understanding
even the simplest of emotions

Thank you, God
For blessing me with another curse
which forbids me to understand
the ways of the world

Thank you, God
For blessing me with the same curse
which has damned my past forever.

Thank you, God
for blessing me with the ability of procrastination,
a gift that serves no pro, and has only con.
a gift that hurts, and never helps

Thank you, God
For blessing me with my fears,
for nothing is nicer then to be humiliated
quivering at what others would let pass.

Thank you, God
for blessing my walls of the mind by making them paper,
for when flooded with commands and when confusion sets in,
I feel nothing but the walls of my mind closing in.

Thank you, God
for blessing me with an inability to be selfless,
a gift that has no rewards and much sorrow.

Thank you, God
for blessing me with a plan,
a plan that had all this in the making, and more to come.

Thank you, God
For distorting your own rules and regulations.
Your followers bear no clue as to your real intentions
as they are too scattered to understand.

Thank you, God
for your inability to give me any reasons
why you have treated me so.
Should I be deliberately created to be humiliated, damn you, God
Should I be an example for others, as a pariah, damn your style of teaching
Should there be no god, damn myself for blaming one that doesn't exist.

Thank you, God
For blessing me with a way to overcome these obstacles....
If you ever gave me a way.
I am my own savior.
