it's been raining for a couple days here now. perfectly matches my mood. television is also out which makes this apartment seem even more lonely. the puppy needed go out a few minutes ago so we checked the mailbox after he did his business. was pleased to find a pink envelope waiting for me. lately my mom has known exactly what to say. not only did she send me the sweetest valentine's day card (a few days late but it happened to come on the day i needed it the most) but she also included a short note on a separate sheet of paper.
"You probably feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders right now, and if you move the wrong way it's going to come crashing down. I want you to know how much I admire the way you keep on doing what has to be done everyday... and, knowing you, you are keeping a smile on your face. Maybe you are thinking this is the end of the world, but the truth is your life is just beginning! You are a beautiful, smart, funny, sensitive and wonderful young woman who has so much to offer. I still believe you and - are soulmates and somehow the two of you will make it through this. Whatever happens I will be here for you."
... that made my heart smile.
