Tricia

For the past year I have been leery of those on My Space. This sentiment is mainly due to the stories I have heard from the students I have taught about who they have met or what they have posted. However, considering I am not very good at keeping in touch with people this may be one way to redeem myself. These past few years have been a whirlwind...getting married, finishing graduate school, teaching, moving four times, and having a baby...a walk in the park. I have been blessed well beyond what I deserve by friends, both past and present, who have in some way made me a better person having known them. So many times I find myself hearing a certain song or hearing a phrase that makes me think of these people. I think about how I shouldn't have lost touch or how I need to send that email I've written in my head so many times. My husband has dappled into this web of people and I have mocked him for doing so. This mocking ceased however when he started hearing from people we haven't seen or heard from in years and it has been fun to see where life has taken them. As I get older (still not 30!) and I see myself having lived long enough to reflect on the past, I hope this venture will connect me to the people who, in some way, have blessed my life.
