when it really comes down to it, this is what I have to say right now.
the other thousand things I've toyed with posting are mostly for myself. here's the part that's not self-indulgence. this is, without embellishment, what I've felt over all things this night, whether in giggles or tears, with so much love.
to those dear friends of mine split into two cars today: you are, each and every one of you respectively, my heroes.
you might not fight wayward gods or build up nations. you may not parade before hordes, toast to your own glory at banquets and ceremonies, relish in your grand accomplishments. the battles you win are small, humble. but I watch you fight them and I am filled with so much awe, so much respect, so much love. the way in which you come through for each other moves me to a point that no grand act of legendary heroism ever could. for you, my friends, my heroes, I reserve the deepest of my respect.
