back to almost 15 years ago…
so, i’ve already been on this nostalgic tip since i’ve left st. louis, but now it’s for real. and you know it’s for real for real because i used italics to emphasize for real.
but, it’s a good nostalgia. it’s not a homesickness. it’s not regret. it’s been more of a reflection and praise to God for what i’ve been blessed with in st. louis, for all the family and people and situations that lead up to where i am now (and wherever i end up in the future).
so, back to the throwback: so, y’all know i don’t check facebook that often, but when i checked it today, i saw that i got tagged in this picture with all these lil kids. and, i’m like "who’s taggin me in this picture with all them lil kids?". but, then i realized i was one of them lil kids. it was a picture posted by my second grade teacher mrs. ward from my 5th grade graduating class at westside christian academy.
then, i started lookin through all the pictures mrs. ward posted from wsca, and i started making friend requests to folks i haven’t seen in a loooong time, as much as 15 years ago, but i still remember them. wsca has helped to produce some quality people, and i’m glad to be one of them.
now, back to the good nostalgia: if you readin this, then it probably means that you’re on my exhaustive list of people that i appreciate for somehow influencing me one way or another. the whole "it takes a village" is true. my village spans all through the stl metro area, from the northside to the southside, and various places in between, from my contacts and experiences from preschool to grad school.
and, it’s cool to see how God is growing my network up here in seattle. much, much love to the andresens and seidels. i really have no idea what my experience outside of work would be like without them.
okay, that’s probably all the mushy stuff i can handle for one blog entry. and i know this entry is typical to an enfj’s perspective, but i don’t know what to tell y’all 🙂
holla!
