Wow! It was surprising and quite funny to find my high school picture on-line. I remember those days filled with anxiety, hope, and wonder. Life has proven to be wildly unpredictable while being madly exciting and disappointing at times. Things have been far more interesting then I could have imagined. I remember having to recite Shakespeare's Macbeth Act V, Scene 5, in the 12-grade English class. Little did I know that "Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his/her hour upon the stage" would hold true. This is when I learned and understand my time and my stage. Up to me to Carpe Diem that s$%t!
