Three little words

I am so thankful today.  And upset at the same time.  My mind races with how to reconcile the two.

To say that it was a bad day at work would be a gross understatement.  It was a disaster.  A truly epic failure.

I wanted to just come home and crawl up and stew.  But my husband wouldn't let me.  I called him from the gym to garner some perspective as he always provides.  And he did not let me down.  He told me to not worry about things and to have a good workout.  And then the three words that can change any day into a perfect one.  "I love you!"

With those words, he let me know that he will always and has always been at my side.  Not always taking my side as I am not always right and he is good about helping me improve by being honest.  But even then he truly is on my side cheering me on.   So off I went and had a great workout with a smile on my face and joy in my heart and thankful for the loyal support of a loving husband.

So what turned out to be a difficult day was made better with his love.  I love him for that.
