Analysis of Words For A Son



Everywhere you journey in life, you will go with my love by your side. Forever it will be with you, truly, joyfully, and more meant to be than words could ever say. You are the joy of my life, the source of my dearest memories, and the inspiration for my fondest wishes, and you are the sweetest present life could ever give anyone. I love you so much. I want you to remember that... every single day. I want you to know that these are things I'll always hope and pray... That the world will treat you fairly. That people will appreciate the one in a million person you are. That you will be safe, smart, and sure to make good choices on your journey through life. That a wealth of opportunities will come your way. That your blessings will be many, your troubles will be few, and that life will be very generous in giving you all the happiness and success you deserve. You're not just a fantastic son, you're a tremendous, rare, and extraordinary person. All the different facets of your life, the ones you reveal to the rest of the world and the ones known only to those you're close to, are so impressive. As people look even deeper, I know they can't help but see how wonderful you are inside. I'll always love you, son, with all my heart, and I couldn't be more proud of you, if I tried.
