Well I'm sitting at the Drs office waiting to get a flu shot, and while I know that I should be thankful for this "luxury"...that's not it. And I don't consider a needle poking me a luxury unless it's repeatedly and putting ink permanently in my skin. :-D
I'm thankful for the years that were shed in the parking lot of Walmart not 30 minutes ago.
"she's thankful for CRYING?!?" I can hear you saying...and the short answer is yes.
I had a moment walking back to my car when I saw a cute old couple that reminded me just enough of my grandparents that it made me miss them. I miss seeing them. Hugging them. I miss the smell of their house. The feeling of being at home in their house.
I'm not even allowed on the property anymore. The property that I grew up on. That was home for so, so long. That I still want to be home.
So, yeah I'm thankful for crying. I'm thankful for it because it means that I have amazing memories of truly amazing people. That my life was affected so deeply by their love that, almost two years later, I'm still saddened by their deaths. That I got to experience the most amazing kind of love, a love that can't be topped by much on earth.
Yeah...I'm thankful for that.
