30 Year High School Reunion

Finally home from a fast paced week in Oregon. It was so great to see old friends at my reunion and catch up with many names I remembered but didn't know well. The benefit of outgrowing awkward social skills of high school is taking the opportunity to get to know those you didn't know well before. There is beauty in the discovery. I really enjoyed the evening and our girls night out slumber party in the hotel.  The highlight however of this trip was spending time with family members I don't get to see often and the time we spent with our adopted grandparents. These precious moments hold so much meaning in my heart.  Life is too short.  Learning to be present and truly engaged in each relationship and conversation is a gift that is received on both sides. Time should be listed on the endangered species list.  It's a valuable commodity that can either drain you or fill you up. Use your time wisely. You could be the blessing someone is waiting for.

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 1 Peter 4:8
