Today! Is My Birthday it is also Mardi Gras, no i didn't get to go boo hoo! maybe next year but i will say that what started off as a crappy birthday with 2 exams and a to do list that reached the sky. Turned better with the help of a few people. First i ran into a professor that i had 2 semesters ago for anthropology. He had complimented me before about my paper but when i ran into him after taking an exam in the Anthro department he went on talking to the anthro secretaries that i was his star pupil that semester and how amazingly smart i was. He bragged on me and i blushed.
Second I very special friend and companion of mine helped me see through the dark of the day and held me through it. He has been such a light and blessing in my life and i wouldn't trade him in for the world. I owe him soo much more than i can ever give him. Thank You Matt for the gift of a smile you give me everyday even when i see you struggle with your own. You have helped me through so much darkness and together we work through yours as well. You are my strength and my reminder that its ok to smile even if it isn't real you can make it real eventually.
Third i picked up my son from daycare today and he gave me the warmest smile and hug. He kissed me and told me he loved me and I felt like i soaked in so much love from him that it became my own. He IS THE World to me, In the greatest darkness in the hardest parts of life. His Love and my Love for him is all that will ever matter above any person on this earth.
I realized today that my blessings may be hard to find sometimes but they are there. They are in the people i know and the people who deal with me. I often go without seeing the true light in this life and most times i never see if i make any difference. Today i realized my being here my birth and my life has touched some just as theirs has touched mine. Even people who i hardly talk to managed to wish me all the best today. I looked on online tonight and saw i recieved almost 40 happy birthdays and best wishes. At some point even I must realized the truth of a wonderful life in the smallest of things.
I suggest you all look for yours.
