Life: The Past

October 28, 2013 by Mary

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure for details.

Yesterday I attended a baby shower for a friend from high school. It was nice to see her and other high school friends again since I don’t see them often.

My 10 year high school reunion is next year. In some ways that’s a crazy thought – it’s been 10 years since  high school?

I pulled up some of my old photos from high school yesterday just to remember what it was like. I’m such a different person from who I was then yet a lot of me is still the same.

Oh high school. I don’t miss you. I don’t miss the past or wish to go back.

I like my present. I like where I am, who I am, who I’m becoming. The past is good simply because it got me here. I’m personally enjoying the present.

    It’s good to see somebody who actively does something to grow and improve after high school. so many people think it should be the best part of our lives, because we are still carefree and such. But Freedom is many times a matter of choice, and of doing the right thing. Congrats!

    You’ve changed a lot since high school. You look totally different!

    Your baby face is adorable! I’m nervous about the ten-year reunion but my husband is excited to go so I guess I’ll be going too? I’m not mature enough for this level of awkward. . .

    Hey, I just had my 10-year high school reunion, too. No wait, that was the 10-year reunion of everybody from my 20-year high school reunion. Damn, thanks for making me feel really old…

    Wow. You have come a long way. Good to see that reminder every once in a while. You look like a 30 year old woman there and now you look so much more youthful. Crazy what weight does.

    No matter what happens next. YOU made that change and shed all that weight and nothing can take that away.
