Security Blanket

I forget to be thankful for many things. But it is a rare occasion that I do not breathe a grateful sigh of relief for soft, laundered blankets providing a cocoon of warmth and rest against the nippy winter air.

It is. so. wonderful.

My body, thirsty for rest, rewards me with a gorgeous thrill of good feel that runs up and down my spine - and my mind, soaked with the day's activity, eagerly drinks up the body's many thank yous. Perhaps we never give up our security blankets, after all, merely tuck them away from the rest of the world in the daytime, and retreat with a sigh to their womb at night.
