comfort, warmth and familiarity. words that probably best encapsulate the meaning of that old pajama feeling. faded, worn out and probably filled with little (or maybe even big) holes. these are the words that describe my favorite pajamas!
excuse the cliche but they've been with me through it all - never ending homeworks, projects, exams to study for, late nights of arranging project lists, meeting details and other what have you's... they've brought me to la dee da slumber land and back. back to another morning / day of unwashed fun!
i can imagine the elders cringing, when they read that part! - but at the back of their minds, i bet they're wishing for the same - freedom to just stay in their jammies and enjoy a weekend of r & r :)
so why am i writing about my pajamas? forget it. i think what pushed me to write was that itchy feeling or need to give thanks. express my gratitude for having that place or more importantly, set of souls that give me a feeling of peace and homey-ness. it's like, the world can throw its fury at me but lo and behold, i will stand upright. i will stand tall and composed because i know that no matter what happens, i have a place to be me. i have people who care and love me enough so as to stand by me at my finest and worst hours.
thank you Father for that old pajama feeling. thinking about it now, it's a feeling that i can look back at to bust away a grey and gloomy day.
