The clouds were dark over my head. Not literal clouds. Eeyore clouds that hovered in my brain and my heart. Clouds that made the day seem ugly and smelly and gross. I first noticed them in the morning but I decided to ignore them. They refused to be ignored. They just stayed and stayed and stayed. In fact, they got bigger and darker and scarier. My shoulders stooped and my insides started to shrivel.
Then you smiled at me and told me that it was ok. You gave me a hug and suddenly rays of sunshine broke through the clouds.
I love this Nicole. You have captured this moment of joy in friendship so well.
