SVU...

i can not believe that it has been 11 years since i graduated from Southern Virginia University!? how can i be THAT old??? it just seems like yesterday and yet it does seem like an eternity...

looking back i can say that THOSE days were the best ever! it taught me things that would come handy down the road. the things that i complained about or hated, now i look back on and just shake my head. those things were NOTHING! we had it soooo good!

the friends, the dorm, the athletics, the coaches, the teachers, the drama, the relationships, the rebellion, the atmosphere, the education, the trips, the travel, the history, the "townies", the fun.....

i could continue but the point is, this was a time in my life that truly fits into my "ignorance is bliss" thinking. we had no idea how hard life really could be. we had no idea what "living in reality" meant. we had NO IDEA of how great we had it! fyi....LIVE IN THE MOMENT AND ENJOY EVERY BIT OF IT!!!

i would go back to that time in a heartbeat. (not that i don't love what i've got now but.....) and to that school because those professors, coaches, faculty honestly cared about us. do i talk to any of my professors from the University of Utah? Utah Valley University? no. but do i still talk to my coaches and professors from Southern Virginia University? yes. yes i do...

anyway, it's mostly because it's "graduation" time and of the "feelings in the air" that i think about SVU but today it's because on their blog they posted THIS... (our video) and let's just say that NEVER in a million years would i have thought that one day i'd be up on their blog.!?!

just sayin....girls club? lol. wow. it's ironic how life can change, huh?!


ps...guess who might be going back in the fall to give a devotional? hehehe yep!? we'll see......
