No no, it isn't going to jinx it - just the opposite. Say how lucky your are and how loved you are three times over. Say Kim Po too if you want to, and cross your fingers and cross yourself but the most important part is that you say how good the good things are. You say that really well. Thank you for taking me to school with you and your son this morning.
it is a glorious thing to love and be loved! merci ma chere
You are blessed to enjoy such happiness in your day!
Who or what is 'Kim Po?'
In 2000 I left a relationship in which I passed 5 years of sheer amazingness,unfortunately we stayed together for 7 more,so when I left I was feeling sadness tinged with relief tinged with a little fear timged with some anger and a side of PTSD of the love kind
I was a cliche from top to bottom,single mom ( and major tension between me and my son),poor,going back to school,sleeping on my friends floor on a mattress,drinking way to much and reflecting the hell out of my life,about 2 months in everything changed,it was like I was stabbed by an optimist dagger and everything was beautiful,I was beautiful,gone were the cliches and hello my life.
We used to pass by this restaurant called Kim Po which served the best soup Tonkinoise like ever ( Unfortunately it closed I see this as permanent good luck),driving down the street in my friend's Cooper and life was grand and to make sure it stayed that way I recited the name of the restaurant three times ,everyone thought I was just being me but they soon started too.
Just to say Kim Po Kim Po Kim Po ,saying this while seated in Myriam's Cooper adds to the effect,life is amazing,and I am incredibly fortunate totally loving my uterus and autumn today
All I can say is, that ruffling those autumn leaves and breathing in that crisp air thru yr words, made me feel fortunate; thanks BB!
there is nothing, repeat nothing, about you that is cliche. You are one of a kind. I love you, Bridget, so much.
Awwwwww everybody group hug then we dive into mountain of leaves
