Happy Friday the 13th




It's Friday the 13th.




Outside, the rain is falling in torrents and dark clouds are blotting out whatever stars are left. The weather's perfect.




I happen to actually like Friday the 13th, not because I'm morbid, but because most people don't like it. So okay... I may be borderline morbid.




Tomorrow is Valentine's. And although today's Friday the 13th and although it's raining, my heart is still at peace. There will be no roses for me tomorrow... no chocolates, no poems... But no sadness pierces my heart. No bitterness poisons my soul. And no face haunts my dreams.




I believe it's a special grace for it takes grace to not long and wish for what others already have and to be content to wait patiently. So wait I shall. There will be many more Valentine's Day for me. And though maybe the next few Valentine's will be a repetition of tomorrow, my heart is secure.
