I can use them to let my light so shine.

It is through their efforts that we've gotten anywhere in the first place.

I am grateful for my weaknesses.

They give me a reason to seek more strength.

With it, I have become an all-around better person.

Without you, I doubt I would have taken the time to write any of this out.
