Sticks and Stones

Sometimes, name-calling can be very nice. Like the writer a few days ago who called this blog thoughtful and moving. Or the ex husband bestowing the one-word "formidable" upon me.

It'd be selfishly stupid to dismiss and disrespect the esteem of people I respect myself. And that they respect me is something I treasure. I've long found life is made worth living, just by surveying the amazing people who've found room in their love for me to hold a place. How can we surround ourselves with people we find wonderful and amazing, and not realize that says something about ourselves - and not be grateful for, and humbled by that?
