It’s damn tough to type “thank you” when you can’t see the screen thru your tears.

Time to find a cake. Today was her birthday.

Your posts about your wife, your hobbies, and how you get along touch all of us in ways not all of us feel comfortable sharing, but I can say that you seem to have things figured out in how your relationship with Linda worked. Your sister saw it too.

Oftentimes we're impacted by that positive and don't say anything because we don't realize how deeply it affected us - it was just to the core and not even a conscious acknowledgement of how it affects us. The one that sent you that message realized the impact you had and wanted to let you know.

That's why we always say, "Tell the ones you love and care about what you feel. You never know if it'll be the last time you talk to them."

DAB, you make a difference in a lot of lives, even if you (and they) don't realize it!
