Third time’s a charm

The flowers came today.  Sitting at my desk they serve as a reminder of how long I’ve been in the circling in the same place.  Three years ago I left a “promising” job at Iced Out Gear and began working in Downtown LA.  I ditched the cargo pants for slacks and a tie.  I switched to v-neck sweaters and topcoats.  Did I change?  Perhaps.  Am I still the same – more so than I realize.

The last three years found me in strange circumstances.  Co-workers became friends and friends became acquaintances.  I found myself in new places and new experiences.  Hard learned lessons and hard earned experiences.

The past three years flew by quite fast.  I remember the faces and remember the tours and I remember the feelings.  The hardest part about letting go is knowing that an entire timeline you imagined can no longer ever be.  No matter where I go in the future I’ll know I won’t shake these memories loose soon.  I’ll forget the names, the details but I’ll always remember the faces.
