Throughout this month of reflection I wanted to be in touch with some friends that may not make it into my regular course of communication. So I was happy tonight to catch up with my friend James where I think we determined that it had been a 2 or 3 year stretch since we last caught up on the phone. Life conversations are a lot different when talked through rather than summarized with one Facebook status at a time updates.
As I was writing about college life last week and processing what my post-graduation steps would be, James is someone who will always be part of my story. We dated long distance senior year (Oregon-Florida) and navigated that graduation stage together trying to figure out what would be next. Part of what was next was our relationship not continuing in that same capacity, but I really feel confident that were it not for his support of my pursuing grad school the following year that I may have never left Portland. How different life would be for me now if I didn't have that push to go.
Want to be on the phone call list this month? Tell me :)
