The Visitors

My husband has been a pillar of loving strength for me and keeps my chin up,  also….

Over the past few weeks since I have been at home, I’ve been graced with the presence of very special people.  

Family that are like friends, and friends that are like family.

Some of my dearest friends and family have stopped by bringing comfort in many ways, shapes and forms. They’ve entered my home accompanied by sweet delicacies, great java, nacho platters, spring rolls, (all some of my favorite things!), not to mention magazines, flowers, information and activities etc.

There are the friends that keep me cheered up with witty banter through texts or E-mailing me from their vacation destinations to see how I’m doing!!! They are thinking of me.  Grateful.

They are all keeping me connected. These are the human connections. These types of connections can’t be compared with Facebook, Twitter or Social Media which can lead to utter loneliness and alienation.

These are the people that I could call if I was stranded on the highway with a broken down vehicle and needed help.  I wouldn’t even have to guess twice; I have many choices.
To truly know that someone cares and doesn’t expect anything in return is real. These are the no strings attached genuine friendships, which run deep.  Appreciate.

 I am grateful to have them and I appreciate them. I’m blessed to have such connections. I love them. It’s that simple.
