Transcription: RESPONSIBILITY

TO: Family I was taught to take care of. To step up and care for Mom and Dad when they needed help. To care for parents, husband.

TO: FRIENDS. A friend is loyal. I aim to be a loyal friend. An encouraging supportive friend. So Simple. Encourage. Be loyal.

TO: GOD'S PLAN. Ever since I was 17 or 18, I've felt that there were successive chapters, and the responsibilities I was asked to take on became/become my DESTINY.

TO: GOD'S CREATION. Bend. Tend. Disappear. Love, honor and protect the radiant creation, of the world soul.
