Today, instead of trying to be optimistic, I just am.
There's something about the sun and a cool breeze that lightens the mood.
You start to think anything is possible. You start to remember all of the things in your life that don't suck. :)
I am blessed. I have a beautiful daughter that is my best friend. She is smart, funny and doesn't judge.
I have a husband for all of his faults, loves me.
I have a sister and brother that I can count on no matter what.
I have a father who insists on seeing me as his little girl. And I like that.
And after living so many years of my life with only a friend or two, I have a group of friends that I wouldn't trade for anything. We have our collective drama. No doubt.
But, on any given day these girls would totally have my back.
We laugh incessantly.
Know all of each other's secrets.
And have the best time time doing absolutely nothing.
But what I really love about these people is that no matter what I say or what I do(and believe me, it can be rough), they continue to be supportive and sweet.
I don't mean this to sound egotistical, but I allow few people in. It's hard to fully trust people and I hate to be hurt. Every relationship you have leaves you open for pain. But somehow I've let more people in than ever before. Some I see every day. Some I never see. But they are each very important to me in their own ways and make my life complete. I think of each one of them every day and hope that they are smiling.
I have said that there are people in my life that I could do without. That they would easily "lift out".
This is no where near the case with the people I am referring to.
They are in my heart.
I love each and every one of them.

Oh My Jeez! I just posted something that was oddly similar to this. Something about this time must be making us take inventory of what we love. Bizarre.
ReplyDeleteI love you very much. For the record :)
