Lucky
My husband is pretty stressed right now. We're broke, and that's causing him a lot of anxiety. His business isn't going great either. People seem to have a lot of "helpful ideas" for him that are anything but. He's also kind of freaked out because my birthday is coming up, and he likes to do nice things for me. I appreciate that, but even more I appreciate him. Stuff is nice. Things are great, but I care far more about his mental wellbeing than another pony toy, new clothes, new arrows for my bow...whatever. He's not home right now, but when he does get back I need to remind him of that. Remind him that we're safe, and warm, and we have enough food to eat. Our electricity, rent and water bills are all paid, and that we won't get kicked out of our house. We have people around us that love us, and while we don't have everyone around us that we love, they too are off fulfilling their lives.
Stuff may be a little rough right now, but we have each other, and that is what truly matters, and that we genuinely are lucky to have what we do, because when it really comes down to it, we're rich in far better ways than what money would be able to buy us, and I'm grateful for that.
Today is also my mom's birthday, and while she won't read this, happy birthday to her. <3
