"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”

- C.S. Lewis (used as the quote before the last chapter of Better in Black)

I am thankful for friendships. Friendships that are genuine and loving, where I feel safe and secure. My life is made so much more beautiful by knowing such kind people. People I can't help but love. Who I could listen to listen for ages. Who know my favorite books and ask if I want the FairyLoot version. Who sit and listen to dramione fanfic with me in the most comfortable silence. I could literally go on. It is a great gift to hold someone's heart and be responsible for the love they share with me. I hope that I carry well. I am so grateful.

This one is for green grass and sunshine and the smell of flowers and barefeet and reading good books. How I love you.

I am so grateful for a job that feels like family. For a place that makes me smile when I walk through the doors. People who hug me and love me and who I love and want to see grow and succeed. What is better than community? What is better than people who love?
