today was on of those day when a series of small – yet significant – happenings make me relinquish any fear or sadness i have been holding onto:

• a drawing in the mail from my niece that says “i love you”
• a late night phone call from my grandmother to say “how are you”
• a weekly catch up with my dear friend AK to balance any imbalance from the week that was
• a spontaneous phone call to RD to remind me that no matter how much time goes this  old and meaningful friendship will always remain in tact

and these little happenings – positive reinforcements – that i am doing okay, i’m finding my way even if when i thought i was drifting astray.
