The Passing of Time


Lately I've felt like time has been slipping right by. Not only in my day to day life, but I'm hitting some pretty big milestones this year and it seems so surreal.

10 years with the company
7 years with the marriage
30 years of life

It's just amazing how I can talk about things that happened TEN years ago and feel like it all happened yesterday. I can't believe that I remember those things with such clarity. Even high school is a little fuzzy (thanks mostly to my efforts to forget it), but from the day I graduated everything just stuck. I always say that MY life really began that day- not the one my parents were navigating- and obviously the memories have followed me all along.

I've been feeling a little sentimental about it all. I don't necessarily like being sentimental, but it seems to remind me of where I've been and I know that it's all a part of who I am now. In all honesty- I would go back ten years and do it all over again in a heartbeat.
