Supporting each other

Last week we had some freezing rain here in Pennsylvania.  One evening my boyfriend and I were walking from his car to my apartment across the sheet of ice that was my parking lot. He quietly put his hand behind my back to steady and support me as we walked so I wouldn't, with my usual grace and coordination, fall and kill myself on the ice.

Although that was an example of physical support, it started me thinking about they way we all need each other from time to time to listen, encourage, and support each other. I feel very grateful for my boyfriend and many friends who so continually uplift, inspire, and support me and hope that I can do the same for them.
