Few understand the depth of my love for this man. Because of him, I remain in this country, and I've been able to build a beautiful family here. He offered me a job when no one else would, demonstrating his incredible generosity. He gives selflessly, expecting nothing in return. He taught me how to be a man how to work hard and how to never play the victim card . I could write a book about his impact on my life. Thank you, Zeus. You truly deserve all the blessings that life has granted you. It's no coincidence; you've earned every bit of it . ❤❤
