Not every letter I write makes it to the mailbox... the reasons are varied and not necessarily important. I ran across such a letter tonight and was glad I had because it made me remember a day more specifically...
Dear ____,
I write to you on a lovely day off. -Lovely because the sun is shining on the snow, lovely because I just finished spending two a half hours having the kind of time you want to have with a friend over lunch (communion, understanding, laughter, substance), lovely because I feel well and rested, lovely because I'm at peace inside with myself and lovely because the day is feeling well-spent....
It was January 12th of this year and, now, I get to be grateful for it all over again.
