When I became aware of my existence;
When I felt inexpressible joy being with friends;
When I first marveled at the beauty of creation…
When I took the first step in the journey of life;
When I met stumbling blocks on a thorny path;
When I became indecisive which way to go…
When I was tired and nobody could help me;
When I lost hope in myself;
When I saw my life as void and meaningless…
When everything in my existence seemed to be so wrong;
When I failed to trust others and talk about my feelings;
When I felt so alone despite the crowd around me…
When all good sentences sounded empty;
When my voice echoed a babble;
When my heart ached in hatred…
When nothing made me happy;
When I felt misunderstood, rejected and scorned;
When all nice remembrances seemed so distant…
When the road before me was dark;
When the past hurt to be remembered;
When the future looked so bleak;
When sin was present in my life…
When the sun rose behind the clouds;
When the stars kept watch over me in the night;
When the breeze uncovered a road less traveled by;
When I learned to pray…
When I opened my eyes…
