When I looked up "support" in the dictionary (the online dictionary, of course) these are the words that I found. And these are words that describe the people in my life and they have lived out these definitions in major ways. I am overflowing with emotions when I think about the joy of my kids and when "they" say "it takes a village"- they weren't kidding. Most who are close to me know that this week hasn't been the easiest of weeks and I probably have a long way to go in the "battle" I am fighting, but the support is what gets me through and I am greatful. I hope that I am as helpful to the people who help me, in some way, some time. It doesn't always feel like I have the time to give friends and family things back that they give me- I hope that's just an insecurity and not the truth. If your reading this your are probably one of the people I am talking about and wether you have supported me in a large way or simply said something that encouraged me through the day, THANK YOU and I love you.
