Daily Supports

     Who are my daily supports?  Well, I have many and they all come in different forms.  I have my family, from my husband to my children who make me laugh and give me hugs everyday.  I have my sister who I talk to almost everyday and who I vent to because I need to vent sometimes to someone who does not know the people that I am talking about.  I have my co-workers who make me laugh and who I grow closer to every day because we need each other and we are in the same boat.  I have my friend who lives up the hill from me.  We talk, pray, shop and sometimes drink wine together.  We laugh, cry, and love each other the best we can with our busy lives with our kids and husbands and other responsibilities.
     To imagine my life without these people is not something I even want to pretend.  The people I see and interact with everyday are as much a part of me as I am.  I am rarely alone, not because I don't like being alone, but because I always want to be around the people I know.  I only wish I had more time to see more people I know who are great people.  The only way I would ever be without all of my supports is if I were away from home with no phone.  I think I may enjoy this for a day or two but after that, I think I would miss them all horribly.  If I had not had them in my life, I do not have any idea where I would be.  That actually is an interesting question.  Would I be in the same place I am now, just with different people?  Or would I be a lonely, working woman with no friends and no kids and no fun.  Personally, I am grateful I will never know the answer to those questions.
