You Make Me Happy

I look at the people in my life and am always flabbergasted.  How I managed this feat I do not know.  For all the questions I love to ask of people, I never ask why they are my friends - I only cherish the fact that they are.  There are a bunch of you but these four were on my mind a lot today.  In alphabetical order:

Jane:

Sent me this text, "I believe that it is a good thing to keep believing positive things until you fall asleep then wake up and embrace good things tomorrow".  I love her.  She says this and believes it and lives it.  So many gems in the treasure box known as my heart and she is one of the brightest.  I have talked about how much I love shiny things but she shines as bright as the sun.  Hence my never ending affinity to her brilliance.

Kym:

It is almost hard to put to words but she is so authentic and boundless.  She too lost her job recently and has also fought hard to make her CA dream a reality and the whole way keeps a positive and stunning attitude.  Knowing Kym is like swimming in the deepest ocean but without any fear as you know her support will keep you afloat no matter how overwhelmed or tired you get, she will keep you going.  I send so many positive thoughts her way.  You are powerful and genuine and I am so lucky to get to be part of this amazing novel you write.  I know that you will make the best of 2014.

Michelle:

She left her job today after 29 years with the same company.  Long story short, the past year and a half have been horrendous for her do to a truly evil person and yet she took that negative energy and made it work for her and not just against her.  She starts a new job and a new journey on Monday and  I can only imagine how afraid I would be to make a huge change like that but she is fearless.  I have said it a million times and still cannot say it enough, she can move mountains - she truly fucking can and it was Mount Everest that was recently moved.  So inspiring that I can barely fit it into my head.  Her epitaph will read, "Here lies Michelle, she moved mountains."  And because it is New York City someone will spay paint graffiti on there that says, "Fuck Yeah She Did!".  I so agree!
