I got a package in the mail yesterday. When I saw who it was from, I got all excited. I’ve received a package from this person before, so I knew they had a history of sending badass stuff!

I’m not going to disclose the person’s name without their approval, but I will just say that this person is truly a Saint. Seriously. They’ve been there for me to vent to, to help me with my stupid little questions, and is simply a downright good person. I am honored to know this person, let alone be able to consider them a good friend of mine.

Anyway, I tore open the package and took some of the contents out. I was soooo excited when I saw what I had gotten! I’ve been wanting one of the things in there for sooo long! This person knew that, too…which is probably why they sent it.

Well, after scoping out what I had gotten, I looked back in the package to make sure I hadn’t missed anything. Thank God I looked in there again! There was a check in the bottom of the package. I pulled it out, looked at the amount on it, and proceeded to cry. I couldn’t believe the generosity of this person. I’ll keep the amount a secret…but I will say that it could NOT have come at a better time! Our power was scheduled to be shut off by 5:00 that evening unless we could come up with the money to keep it on! My friend totally saved our asses. If not for him, I wouldn’t be typing this right now because I’d have no electricity!

Can you believe that?! How did I get so lucky to have such good friends. It’s not the money itself that made me cry, of course. It’s the gesture…and the fact that this person was so selfless and helped us in our time of need. Lonnie and I are both so grateful. I have thanked this person over and over and over again….I feel like I cannot thank them enough. I’m so blessed…honestly. And I NEVER thought I’d say that. I only started believing in God a few months ago. It seems like ever since that happened, things have really been falling into place for me. I mean, yeah….some really shitty stuff has happened, but I have never known such truly wonderful people in all my life. I feel truly cared about by my friends, and I don’t know where I’d be without them…

Anyway, if the person decides that it’s okay to divulge his/her name, I will do so. Otherwise, they shall go down in history as the Saint who saved my ass. Thank you again, dear friend!

I would like to add that I also got something else which is very special in the mail yesterday. My best girlfriend, Sarah, sent my family a Thanksgiving card…and also a card just for me! :D  I was so excited to get it! Sarah is such a sweetheart & I will love her ’til the day I die.   The cards are on my fireplace mantle right now and they shall remain there ’til Thanksgiving has come and gone.

Thank you again, Sarah! xoxoxoxox
