old skool!

Gosh....I've been getting lots of emails from old high school friends lately and it's been so weird. I love keeping in contact with people that knew me in a completely different season of life. WOW! I have changed SO much it's amazing!

It makes me realize how short life is. It just seems like yesterday I was graduating from high school but yet in reality it's practically time for a 10 year reunion. Sometimes I wish I could go back to the good ol' carefree days but what a great feeling it is that I can look back and not have a whole bunch of regrets. That's one of my biggest fears in life is that one day I'll be lying on my death bed and be thinking of all the regrets I have. Sure....there's some different little choices I might have made different - like maybe reach out a little more to what we called the geeks (who i'm sure are succesful individuals today) instead of just politely being nice to them when I could have been sticking up for them but other than that I think I've lived a good life and have a lot left to live to the fullest.

Above all I want to make people the most important in my life. Work won't matter when you're breathing your last breath but how much you loved people will and that's what I never want to lose sight of. Sometimes I get distracted but it's good to have a good kick in the rear to remind me every now and then

Anyway so that's it now for my nostalgia. Here's a picture of me from back in the day that I thought was kind of amusing - I was a sophmore in high school and was the homecoming princess.
