This is my dad's response to how she goin' -Some people would say "The Very Best" - a smart ass would answer "The Hairy Chest" but my dad was always better than just "the very best" he was two or three kinds of it.
Today I'll use it to describe my Family and Friends. We had a baby shower yesterday - less than 6 weeks to go until the due date, St. Patrick's day coincidently enough... and it was awesome - people are so generous - the people with kids know what you really need and they are passing on subtle lessons through their gift giving. We got tons of great stuff - our little girl is going to be well decked out in pink - or if it happens to be a boy will refer to his 3-6 month period as his "pink phase" - either way the gifts were appreciated.
I love being in a room with people that you've known your whole life - your best friends in the world - it's very relaxing - everybody knows everybody - and there no WORK involved. You know those uncomfortable silences that happen when you are at a party and you've really run out of obvious things to talk about with someone you've just met - those don't happen - there are no uncomfortable silences, just silences.
Every now and again you want to tell the people in your life how important they are to you, which is necessary - but there are those who have always been there (even when they weren't) and realise that their importance to you doesn't need to be spoken - because it's obvious - it's just understood.
Now that's two or three kinds of the very best...

Your postings over the past week are so heartfelt and positive. You are blessed to be surrounded by your loving family and friends. AND......they are blessed to have you around to show them the power of positive thinking.
Keep writing, Scott. You have shown more that two or three kinds of the very best.
It's just understood.
