THANKSGIVING BLANKET

There are those of you who have chosen to be part of the threads that keep me from fully unraveling during the installments that life has been heaving upon me. Some of you have given me those little stitches of encouragement whenever you see that fresh rip and tear from the feelings that I've exposed. There are the sensitive few that realize that I may need patching up in some places. They add the strong pieces of themselves to where I desire the emptiness filled. Even new friends find a way to iron me out, so that I may not become just a pile of crumpled mess. A few has been there from the beginning and shared in my development. I am handmade by parents who created on this subsisting canvas, a tapestry that has comfort and adaptability. My dear childhood friends, you are and will perpetually be a part of the pattern that makes me a complex and resilient person.

Now that you all have made me whole again just for being present in my life... I would like to say that, "I'll be your blanket, I'll cover you... with a thousand sweet kisses..." - RENT THE MUSICAL
