I compare that to the nothing I had with my step mother, no warmth, no comfort to be had from that relationship. And, believe me, a relationship has to be a genuine one or else I can smell BS a mile away, this stuff cannot be faked.
I compare the 2, lift my shoulders as I walk, feeling content again. Thinking of all the moments T has said something to me that hits my heart. Think myself lucky to finally have that experience, that those who were fortunate enough to have got it through out - life can take for granted.
It's all an inside job!

I too think that people take it for granted and simply cannot imagine what life is like if you have not had a loving parent, some people seem to assume that everyone else they know has had it too.
