Blessed is another word for luck.

I keep telling my true love that she’s lucky. Having been born an Italian. She thinks I’m kidding. Yes, maybe halfway. Because I’m also not kidding. I’m serious. The fact that she was born. And evolved into a beautiful and intelligent woman. That’s sufficient to label her life blessed. Being Italian is a bonus. And then the fact that out paths crossed five years ago. Yes, we stumbled across each other. What are the odds of that happening? A guy from distant Minnesota meeting his true love from distant Italy. And not only that, having her be bilingual. Talking fluent English.  Now tell me that ain’t luck. Do it, and you’d b lying. Turns out, we’ve both been lucky. Maybe blessed is another word for it. –Jim Broede
