i hope my words are strange and wondrous,

like kisses that quiet all things superfluous,

so that we can all stop and

listen

its over.

yes its friday.

weekends are always recharging hours..

when i really get back into my stride.

into my groove.

the people help,

the food helps,

the atmosphere helps.

YOU help.

thankyou God.

for giving me so much.

forgive my wavering, forgive my doubt.

im being pushed so far out of my comfort zone i feel

lost.

but faith is certainty in hope.

and i have faith.

i will have this faith.

at this moment,

my gratitude overwhelms all else.

and that i really should stop feeling self-pitiful.

its ridiculous and absurd,

when i have so much.

today's flower is dedicated to the many faces who made this friday worth a week of struggle.

chrysanthemum.

from the depths of my heart i say thankyou.

thankyou for laughter,

thankyou for brainfood,

thankyou for concern,

thankyou for invitation,

thankyou for braving the cold,

thankyou for insults and compliments.

thankyou.

you guys bring the smile back to my face.
