Luck of the Draw

Sometimes something happens that makes me realize how lucky I am. The best is it normally happens after a small simple moment. Little things that I am so grateful for. It’s hard sometimes to see the small beauties for all of the chaos that exists. In day to day life it is easy to focus on the problems because I feel a need to fix problems as they continue to pop up. I think that’s why I get so excited when those beautiful moments shine through.
Tonight I was driving one of my mini-buddies home. She is so sweet and always is excited to see me and Noah. She makes me want to be the best person I can be because she seems to be extremely grateful for my friendship. We have a great relationship. She is so much younger than me but I enjoy watching her grow-up because I know what she is going through. Times are so different now and kids seem to grow-up so fast but every now and then I catch a glimpse of a young adult struggling and loving the same thingsĀ  I did and I love that she lets me be a part of her life.
Having her and people like her in my life make me realize how lucky I am. They drive me to continue to be the best version of myself. I am lucky to have people that support me. The best is sometimes they don’t even realize they are doing it. And that’s where I feel like the luck comes in. It’s true luck when you find someone who cares so much effortlessly. Luck is finding someone who doesn’t have to try to care about you.
