Blue Lights

When I got home today and started on my down the hallway to my room, I saw some blue light issuing from. I was home alone, and a little freaked. (Yes, the thought of aliens did cross my mind.) When I stepped inside, I saw that there was a beautiful string of little blue light bulbs hung over my desk. Tears of stress had started dripping down my face a few minutes before, and when I saw these lights I was so happy I could almost feel them being wiped away. There was something about those lights - blue and calm, strung up carefully - that was more touching than any words could be. They adorned and illuminated not only my desk, but also the small remnants of joy I had in the back of my mind.

So thank you, Mother. Thank you very much.

  4. You are welcome, my dear! I enjoyed putting up the lights and thinking about you coming home to them. It didn't occur to me that you would be coming in alone and might be thinking about aliens. That wasn't part of the picture I had in my head! But I'm glad they gave you good feelings - you should turn them on sometimes!!!!!
