We are good.

I have no ulterior motive…I am not here to steal anyone away from anyone else.  I didn’t weasel my way into this, and I was not coerced.   I didn’t expect to be here today, feeling the way I do.  When it began, my only plan was to explore the possibilities and satisfy a vague sense of curiosity. 

Last summer I had lunch with an old friend that I hadn’t seen in 24 years.  I remembered that when I knew him before, I sincerely enjoyed his company – he was bright, amusing, handsome, attentive, interesting…those things about him haven’t changed.  He said he was happily married (but didn’t need to – it was clear to me when I saw them together).  She is so sweet and caring, beautiful, honest, sharp, funny…I loved that they truly enjoyed each other’s company so much.  If that hadn’t been the foundation that we built this relationship on, it would not still exist.  There aren’t enough hours in the day or patience in the world that can add the variable of another person to a weak or damaged relationship and expect anything good to come of it. 

Y’all can be worried about what might be bothering any or all of us at any given time.  Feel free to be concerned about someone being taken advantage of or not being treated properly.   One of the many qualities that makes each of us great individually, and the Trifecta strong as a unit, is our compassion and empathy for the feelings of the others.  We are strong and caring, and we face head-on the obstacles that arise.  This blog is not necessarily indicative of our everyday lives.  It is a place we come to vent, daydream, muse, and explore ideas.  It is a place where we can safely express ourselves and talk about things without fear of hurting anyone’s feelings, OR…(my personal favorite) beating a dead horse.

Rest assured…we are good.
