Photo Blog Introduction...

I'm going to share with you a picture a day, that summarizes one of the most exciting adventures from that day. It could be something that happened to me, something that I witnessed, or something that keeps me asking more questions about my faith and love in a God that is beautiful and powerful. I am going to share it with each of you, in hopes that you can share the memories and moments with me on this Journey. Inspired by, Hebrews 12:1.

6.26.12-The Beginning of Goodbye...

Kelsey's Going Away Party
Dear Betty, I came to Wellesley because I wanted to make a difference. But to change for others is to lie to yourself. 

...My teacher, Katherine Watson, lived by her own definition and would not compromise that, not even for Wellesley. I dedicate this, my last editorial, to an extraordinary woman, who lived by example and compelled us all to see the world through new eyes. By the time you read this, she'll be sailing to Europe, where I know she'll find new walls to break down, and new ideas to replace them with. I've heard her called a quitter for leaving and aimless wanderer. But not all who wander are aimless, especially those who seek truth beyond tradition, beyond definition, beyond the image. 

This is just the beginning of a summer of goodbyes to a lot of very dear friends.  The first to leave?  My beautiful friend, Kelsey.  Yet another one of my serendipitous acquaintances and short journeys.   We share a similar journey, and so therefore, I understand her need to continue on elsewhere.  I'm so proud of her, she just passed her boards and is going to work at Wake General in North Carolina.  She has courage to transition into a new role of a nurse surrounded by a completely new environment.  Congrats Kelsey, but you will be missed...
