This is the way life _should_ be.
I was visiting my friends, Sharon and Leonard. I'm going to catsit for them next week, water the plants, take out the trash, generally keep the house in good order. In the half-hour conversation we had (in addition to all the cat bits) they wound up offering me use of their car tomorrow to do some clothes manipulation (makes my current cat-sitting adventure MUCH easier), and giving me half a tupperware of turkey leftover from Thanksgiving.
And just...taking care of each others' houses and pets. Feeding each other. Loaning use of cars that would just be sitting idle in the drive otherwise. Good conversation and excited showing off of lovely new remodelings. Taking _care_ of each other, and being friends to each other.
This is how all of life should be. There shouldn't be people with heaps more cars and food and stuff that they can't _possibly_ use, not while there are other people starving and dying and working themselves to the bone.
I'm a little late for it, but I remain incredibly thankful for my friends, my family, for the people who love me and I love in turn. Be excellent to each other.
