The people that matter

There comes a point in your life when you realize:

Who matters,
Who never did,
Who won't anymore...
And who always will.

This quote's come around twice and it means something more to me than just an email forward. Those that have sent it to me, thank you.

The people that matter, the people you think about while doing the dishes, working, and gardening. For me those people are my family, a few beautiful friends, and some loved ones gone from the world but never forgotten.

My family: parents, sister, hubs, chicklets, extended family, and in-laws.
My friends: y'all know exactly who you are.
Those I know I'll meet again.

I don't always say how much they mean to me. But Mark can tell you how often I "accidentally" call him. Somehow hearing his voice makes the world a wee bit better for me.

To those I love, thank you for being part of my life, for helping me try to be better everyday.
