A new decade starts.

I can still surprisingly remember where I was at the start of the last millenium almost as if it was yesterday. I was with Britnie, Anne Jason, Billy, Caliab and Brian. We were downtown for the what was called at the time "First Night Celebration" out on the streets of Salt Lake with tons and tons of other people. I remember that I bought a special new dress and a feather boa for the occasion ( I had to dress up the dress )... I had no idea what to expect of the new millenuim. I had always thought whent he year 2000 came we would be driving in little cars like those on the Jetson's and maybe living on the moon. However in my defense I was only 5 when I believed those things because it just seemed so far away.
When I think back on the past decade there is a song that comes to mind. "It's so hard to Say goodbye to yesterday by:Boyz II Men". It's true though how do you say goodbye to yesterday? When this decade started I had no idea of what was to go where I would go the people that I would meet and things that would change my life drastically. I mean I moved to Texas in 01 for a few years and met people down there that I cherish with all my life and I don't know if I would have made it out there with out them. Reconnected with an old friend and have stayed reconnected. Now live in my own house. The biggest but the best thing that came out of the decade of course would be Jacoby. I can't even begin to picture my life without him. I honestly can't wait to see what the next decade brings. I can look back on this decade with fondess, there were good timesm truimphs, heart aches loss and great friendships but those are what made me the person that I am today and I wouldn't change it a bit. Never look back with regrets or wonder just look forward with hope and learning.
