Rose Among Thorns

It's Friday.

I limped into my office today, grumpy and feeling poorly. I've already taken 9 Advil today and it's not 10AM yet.

As I opened my office door, there was a big vase full of roses. There is only one other person with a key to my office so I knew immediately who it was... dearest Alicia, one of my best friends and great assistant/buyer.

There was also a beautiful Christmas card which was more like a letter. It made me cry. It's hard to describe how it feels when someone really sees you, doesn't just compliment you or pat you on the back but really sees you and what your worth. I find myself surround by friends who really see me these days, and that's such a big blessing.

PS - she said that I was one who would remain till the very end (biggest compliment ever)

You will be counted among those who will remain. Your heart is steadfast, even when you feel as though your failing your heart has had a yes.

Alicia, asked me.."do you think the roses are too much" That cutie lil' curly head is the queen of showing affection! And you my friend should get roses everyday!

I LOVE you friend! You are too cute--and so sweet to me:) You should be proud of me; I set up this account just for you! But it was for sure worth it. Your kindness has kept me from much gloom this last year.
