Firecracker day...
I’ve never really had the opportunity to go and set off fireworks for myself. I’ve been to some great shows that had fireworks. I’ve watched other light and set off fireworks...but again, I’ve never really done it myself.
When Daddy came along, he found me in a not so great state. I mean I was broken...but I had lost almost all hope that I would be valuable to anyone. My attitude towards life was just whatever. During our coarse of starting to talk and get to know each other...I found that he had given me his own pet name...he called me Firecracker.
I’m not sure why he decided on this name...and at the time I really didn’t see how that word related to me at all.
Now I relate to the word. Not only because that’s how he sees me...but in the way he has made me light up like a firecracker. He has released all these beautiful colors in me that were waiting to explode. He awoke in me a bright and explosive light...and I’m not even sure he knew he was doing it when he gave me the name.
Like a firecracker...I am nothing like I was before he lit the fire. There is no comparison to the person I was before him to the person I am today.
So I pay tribute to all Firecrackers tonight...be beautiful, let all of your colors out..dream big and love wildly!!
Until tomorrow...
