So I am blessed with a wonderful and diverse tapestry of friends... Whether we survived a show together, we worked in the movie theatre or for the last decade plus survived a campaign together each of you has a special place in my heart... As you can guess from this blog, I feel very safe in expressing my ideas...
I just got off the phone with a friend of mine, Idida... Now some of you immediately know who she is... Wonderful, charasmatic and funny as all get out - and through the years a friend in the best senses of the word... We haven't talked in a while and I needed to get her take on a situation... Like a true friend she was there for me in an instant...
The interesting thing about Idida is that she is enrolled in seminary school above all the other things that she is doing. And after I got some of her thoughts on the subject at hand, we drifted, like friends do, to other bits and pieces of conversation... Among them we got to talking about emotional issues and that led to a conversation about acceptance and love...
She couldn't have said it better, that amongst all other things you truly have to love yourself too... As a person who is slowly learning how to do that - it brought a smile immediately to my face... Now we weren't talking the overboard, self absorbed variety - we were talking about being at peace with yourself and appreciating it...
So today, amoung the loves of your life, take a moment to recognize that loving yourself, even a little, is probably one of the greatest Valentines you can get...
