Another short and sweet one - in fact, I shouldn't even be writing this post. I have to give a toast at my sister's wedding tomorrow and I just can't seem to get it right. It's not that I don't have great things to say about my sister (obviously, I do.) It's just that I'm not sure I can really put them into words and even if I could, I'm not sure I want other people hearing those words. There are just some things that are sacred to me and I don't know if I want to share them with the world. Anyway, I will figure out (because I always do...and really, I don't have a choice at this point.)
As for WrAbCrThFo, I'm very thankful for my sister's friends. We've been spending a lot of time together the last few days while prepping for the wedding and they are among the kindest people I have met. The love they have for my sister is obvious and they've embraced me in the last few days as well. I'm essentially a complete stranger (to some of them) but I don't feel like that at all when I'm around them.
I'm shy and not naturally a 'people person', but it's a good reminder to be kind to everyone and go out of my way to make people feel welcome, even if it doesn't come naturally to me. As much as I'm ready to go home and get back to my own routine (and comfy bed) I'm also going to miss everything about being here, especially the people.
