Sunday Softies

We met through a friend, but lived on the opposite ends of the world, and then all of your other friends had a falling out with this friend, and really, I don't even hang out with this girl at all anymore... so we just never will be in the same place at the same time, unless it's completely random chance.

That said, I frickin' LOVE you.  You are so pure and sweet.  Your posts are so full of hope, without being cliched and hallmark-y.  You are one of the few people who can pull of "this is what I'm hoping to do/ am doing right this minute/ am going to do" without sounding like a self-important braggart.  You're proud of what you've accomplished, happy with what you have, and genuinely wish for the best for others.

Best of all, you have a way of saying things that is so direct and so simple that it feels absolutely raw, as if you're somehow able to channel your emotions into pixels.  I felt it when you finally got the teaching position you'd been pining for, when your stepmother died, and when your new baby was born.  It's magic.

I hope to continue to read your posts, and that maybe I'll find a little of that magic in my own someday.
