Of Heavy Rains and Torrential Blessings

I’m blessed with a family who can laugh then cry in an instant or do both at the same time.

I’m blessed with life partners who are always there ASAP, in kindness and in presence, with or without me asking, to make me laugh and to make me feel certain that there will never be a lonely day, ever, no matter what.

I’m blessed that my dad, my mom, my siblings and I have about forty-six thousand friends combined, who flooded the household because of the rain.

I'm blessed with a boss who believes in respite with pay. :)

I’m blessed with relatives whose loving words from across the miles or their mere presence alone, settle like a comforting blanket, if not for everyone then for someone, and there's always someone.

I’m blessed that I have 3 living rooms of solace, and 4 bedrooms for drunken, dreamless or weepy sleep.

And I'm blessed with my very own personal, sexy-smelling broad shoulders to rest on, big, manly hands to hold and two strong arms that I can always wrap around me anytime I want to. An awesome man who dropped everything else in an instant and became in charge.

They say "thank you" isn't appropriate for a time like this. So I'll just say I love you. And you know who you are!
