Lindsey, a very amazing friend of mine (hey, sweet love), shared this fantastic video on Facebook today. And I almost didn’t watch it, because I was scanning my feed after a long day at work, my eyes half-open, my brain half-fried.
But, she said something that made me change my mind: “If you do nothing else today, watch this.”
Although this came out in 2010, I had never heard of Storycorps’ “Danny and Annie” before. I have to say that Lindsey was spot on, and as those close to our hearts always seem to know, I needed to watch this today.
I don’t usually have bad days. I consider myself a joyful person the majority of the time.
Today was different. I was kind of in a funk, consumed by self-doubt, pesky worries, and just plain disheartened after a long week of grinding and juggling.
Yet at the end of the day…there’s love. Right there. Love.
I think all of us, from every speck on the map, can agree that love is this immaculate tint that covers our worlds, that turns life into a masterpiece, one radiating with color and soul.
This beautiful cartoon changed everything for me today.
There’s always a shelter when I get home. I am grateful for my husband and I can’t wait for him to hold me when he walks in that front door.
Mr. H, I write you epic love letters in my head every day. And I will continue to do so for the rest of our lives.
Press play.
Reblogged this on sweet disposition.
I hadn’t heard this. It catches you in the throat. Thanks for sharing it.
It really does. I was floored.
Not a dry eye in the house!
Aww, here’s cyber tissue. : )
Beautiful. I shared this with my guy. Thanks for sharing it with us, Britt.
Awesome. I shared it with mine, too.
That’s beautiful, had me in tears and I love the phrase ‘there’s a shelter when I get home.’
Thank you so much. I’m passing out cyber tissues over this one. Here’s yours…
Nicely done, Britt. Got the old man smiling and misty-eyed. 🙂
Then, my work here is done. : )
Wonderful. The perfect vid to play when we need that reassurance.
Totally. Worth the snot and tears. : )
We are lucky, aren’t we?
Abso-freaking-lutely, we are.
