It seems that I will finally be leaving slippery rock in September. Not just for the summer, or for a break but indefinitely which feels weird. It has become more of a home to me the last 5 yrs then any other place has been. My tiny trailer, my crazy job, my friends, and living companions have been a constant for me for so long that it seems strange to be leaving without knowing when I will return. I'm extremely excited to be working for AmeriCorps in Denver and surrounding areas. Traveling, meeting new people, and growing both personally and professionally. It has all fallen together almost effortlessly and I take that to mean something. I see that as this is something I was meant to do, the next step for my life. Who knows what the purpose will end up being, or what I will take from this experience, or what I will be able to give? I know that it was a needed step for me to take. It was time for me to move from what is comfortable to something scary, something challenging. Something that is entirely mine...
Slippery Rock has forever changed my life...
The community it has brought together will forever be in my heart.
I was blessed to be a part of a rare happening. To be a part of something bigger then any of us were aware of. Fortunate enough to feel a belonging that is impossible to describe.
Here is to friends weddings, new jobs, graduates, moving, traveling, and mostly to growing up...
