I'm probably going to cry as I write this but I'm going to try not to. This has been the most wonderful couple of days. Wednesday night was so much fun: crazy but fun. I got to meet Alanna Powell who is the founder of Boldly Me: google them. They do amazing work and I love reading their daily aspirations on facebook. And then there's Carolyn. I got the biggest hug from her. If that was the only thing I did this trip, it was worth it. Whenever I'm in her presence, I just feel so much love. There aren't enough words to really explain it but it's a sort of feeling knowing that another person appreciates you for who you are and what you do.
Then the next day we had lunch. Granted I was super late because of LA traffic and I felt SO bad but it was THE best two hours ever. We laughed so much and again, my heart is just so thankful.
In October, it'll be five years since I met Carolyn. Knowing her has changed me completely. She has taught me so much about myself.
For anyone who knows the song from Wicked "For Good", it kind of makes me think of all of this. "Because I knew you, I have been changed for good."
The photo below is from Bingo night on Wednesday. Someone at our table snapped it and it's just kinda perfect.
