Wishing for Velcro
By StellaESP DIAMOND
Williston Park, New York

Six years old, I stare at my Untied shoes. I sit tied to the Steps. Trying to figure out How to tie laces, Trying to figure out My first steps of Freedom.

If you treat me like a princess, I&#039;ll treat you like a prince.<br /> If you treat me like a game, I&#039;ll show you how it&#039;s played.

&quot;Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?&quot; ~Evan Almighty &quot;God&quot;
