It's hard to believe that 15 years has gone by already... but in the same breath it seems as though that was a whole other lifetime!  I guess, since I've received the invitation for my class reunion I've found myself pondering back to my highschool years.  Unfortunately, I haven't looked back at those years fondly.  Yes, there were times that were good... but most of all I look back at those years as many, many bad choices.  They included a questionaire to fill out... and for the life of me, I'm not sure what to put on it!  lol  I'm totally not the person I was then.  This questinaire has made me think of who I was... who I am... and who I want to be!  I have to remember that those bad choices... even as much as I hate to think of them, has formed me into the person I am.  The same as the choices I continue to make today will form me into who I will be in the future. 

I guess, I find it quite comical... the way we think... who we are... how we react... how we raise our chidren... how we befriend people... has all been formed by our past.  I find myself telling my children all the time, "You have 2 choices... ultimately they are your choice.  You have a good choice & a bad choice.  With those choices come good consequences or bad consequences.  Remember your choices of today affect your tomorrows!"  I pray that as they come to the times to make choices, my speech will ring in their ears!  lol  I was talking to a friend the other day and her 16 year old daughter.  I had to chuckle becuase this daughter of hers said she always has her mothers words stuck in her head.. or something to that affect.  lol   I pray that my speeches will stick into my kids' heads.

I'm still trying to decide if I want to go to this reunion.  In ways I'm excited to see some of my fellow classmates that I haven't seen since graduation.  But in other ways, I would rather leave the past in the past and continue on in the future.  Decisions, decisions.  Not one of my favorite things!
