Earnest: I was starting to be physically ill as I covered my emotions, I had nowhere to turn. Everyone was looking to me for signs that things were going to be okay. Nobody ever asked me how I was doing, but I was always there to cheer everyone up. One morning I picked up my phone pulled up the notes section and typed: What do I have to be Thankful for?” After a few weeks passed, I met with a dear friend that convinced me to have the work published and thus “Thankful” was born.
