Its days like today that I realize the amazing gift M has in in parents. They don't really know him, they don't get him, they don't try. What they do do is love him beyond reason and will do anything in their power to make sure he is cared for and provided for.
This beyond reason love has been extended to me. I have no doubt that things would be very odd if we ever split up but things are always odd while change is happening. His mother called me, out of the blue, while M was in Paris to make sure I was alright. How sweet is that? She knows I'm ok but she called so make sure that I knew she was thinking about me.
He has had something his whole life from his blood family that I've never had. I never understood it and it still catches me off guard. I don't expect it. I don't really understand people who are very close to their families. Really large families make me uncomfortable. Its never been something I had to deal with.
In my life, I have replaced the bond with my blood relatives with my chosen family. My wife lets me call her in the middle of the night to talk when I'm worried about something. My partners challenge me every day to grow and become who I need to be to face the challenges of tomorrow. My tradition is a huge sprawling network of wonderful people that I have a base-line commonality with that is remarkably powerful.
Friends, loved ones, lovers, family. Thanks for being willing and able to be chosen. I appreciate it. Welcome back sun!
