My Parents

On Wednesday evening, for no reason at all (nothing was wrong!), my parents drove through rush hour traffic to bring me homemade Iranian food for dinner (including multiple varieties of enough food to feed us for weeks…). I was going to spend the night eating pasta and watching reality TV on the couch, and this generosity (which came a day after I got a random package from them in the mail with a dress they knew I'd like…) boggles me. No one on this planet deserves them, I will forever aspire to be them. 

Secretly, it has been a hard week (maybe parents just always know?), and I am so grateful for this love.
