I feel so incredibly loved. That is the only way to put the way my heart wants to burst out of its chest. I went to a local gathering of some of my friends, and spent some time saying good bye. Came close to tears a few times with all the wonderful well wishes and offers of crash space and room to stay if I need it in the future. I say again how lucky I am in my family both of choice and of blood -- they rock, even if I dont always deserve it.

My universe is made brighter by having such friendships and I can only promise to be mindful of this grace and continue to be worthy of it.
