[00:00.40]8.Love Is Everything


[00:04.97]The winter cold hung in the air like a frozen dinosaur 1 trying to thaw 2 from his glacier 3 and walk across the earth. 


[00:12.60]Breath iced like a tiny morning mist upon a meandering 4 river. 


[00:16.07]The sounds of the city rising and spilling into silence as the night began to claim its citizens for sleep.


[00:22.61]Blowing on gloved hands that seemed to have little effect on cold hands that ached with chill. 


[00:28.60]Long hours hanging pressed clothes, pulling tickets and ringing up the customers. 


[00:34.48]The last of the packaged hot chocolate gone and only the longing 5 need for home and a pot pie to warm her.


[00:41.34]It was payday and she cashed her check. 


[00:44.39]Two Santas and one Salvation 6 Army captain and she was minus ten dollars but what did it matter? 


[00:51.25]She had a place to sleep, something decent to eat, and she had Drew.


[00:55.94]Drew with his kindness, his caring and his humor to lighten her day. 


[01:00.94]Thanksgiving was nigh and they were collecting early for the hungry and the children that would have no Christmas without them. 


[01:07.91]She was so much more lucky than most of them but perhaps not as lucky as those that scurried 7 in the Wednesday night sleet, 


[01:16.19]shopping early before the pickings became slim. 


[01:18.48]Life was not always easy but sometimes it could always be safe.


[01:22.53]She had Drew, and Smat, the ugly little terrier that nobody wanted. 


[01:28.22]She had comfort and warmth in the apartment. 


[01:31.06]She had dinner for tomorrow thawing 8 in the small turkey and the little Thanksgiving bonus from her boss.


[01:36.65]But most of all, she had love. 


[01:39.38]It was the most important of all.
