And Today Was A Day.

Holidays don't do much for me anymore. I spent my Thanksgiving quarantined in my bedroom while my family celebrated downstairs, couldn't take any chances getting my grandparents sick.

Laying in bed, I was thinking about how all my life I've saved last resorts for help and how the few times I've been reduced to them, I've found that they've never really existed at all. It happened today. I shouldn't have been alone.

I suppose I should say what I'm thankful for, although so many blessings have come with curses, "our double-edged sword" you called it. I'm thankful to love and to be loved. I'm thankful you're alive. I'm thankful for songs that have been written about me. I'm thankful for our night at the ocean, the cigars and shooting stars.
