...and when you arrive you're greeted with a large hot honey lemon tea with two sugars from Tim Horton's, plus warm jiffy cornbread muffins that your friend made herself, plus other snacks
... and your friend insists you lay out on the big couch and lays a blanket over you that she'd warmed up in the dryer just for this occasion
...and then her parents come downstairs to join the binge-watching party, and when dinnertime comes they make hot sausages and tater tots and salad and everything is so so so good
...and you're reminded of how necessary it is to cherish people who make you feel safe and welcome and free to laugh as loudly as you please, and how necessary it is to spend time with said people
...and you're reminded that God has called all of us to LIVE, and you been slippin'.
Thank y'all.
