day08 - all good things
dear luci,
a lot has happened tonight. a lot that i do not have the energy nor the readiness to go through on here. i initially decided i wouldn't write much at all for tonight's post. i still won't. but it makes me sad to think I'll miss an opportunity.
so I'm going to make a non-exhaustive list of things I'm thankful for.
- My true friends. Limited in number but boundless in love.
- Music. Harmonising messily to a song on a car stereo. The power that holds.
- My dog, Delilah. When she grins at me with her big dumb face, I'm certain she means it.
- All the good memories I've made in the last few years. They can never be taken away from me.
- Monsters Inc. A superior film, and a good way to cheer me up.
- Hugs.
- The tattoos, meaningful and frivolous alike, that I have amassed on this walking canvas.
- You, little Luci.
- Rabbit-holing (you'd know something about that, huh)
- The relative good fortune I have been blessed with in life, despite and because of all the hardships I have endured.
I hope you liked that list and I hope it reminded you of the things you love. I might take a while to get back to "normal", and what "normal" is for me is very likely to change. But it's helpful to reflect on the good things. Just keep swimming. I'll be doing the same, right beside you.
sweet dreams, Luci <3
