The Gifts of My Life

By Dee Logé-Wacker

The child she was, the woman she became is the intrigue of this life story. Each time Dee had to endure heartbreaking disappointments, she became more determined to keep looking on the brighter side. Dee knew early that “life is what you make it,” and made this her daily theme. She never expected things in life. With this philosophy, Dee knew that each act of kindness from others held a gift of life.

Someone once shared, “As if by magic, doors will open up to you when you least expect it.” Dee’s faith in God has allowed her to walk through these open doors, guided as to which road to travel. She believes that God gave her the intelligence to make good decisions, and these roads lead her to an abundance of thankfulness and gratefulness.

Dee Logé-Wacker, born in Berlin, Germany, grew up during World War Two. Inspired to look on the bright side of life, she always keeps her glass at least half full. Dee’s confidence grew once she realized that she had to learn to like herself first. The inspiration she received from many people helped her learn and become a person of leadership. She counts her blessings and loves to pay it forward.
