Graduation Season: The End of Several Eras

I just attended my sister’s graduation from high school where I did the requisite crying at the first chords of Pomp and Circumstance. The day before my mom picked me up at the airport and shocked me with a head of white hair (she stopped dying it). That night, my best friend from high school and her husband had me over for dinner in their sparkling state-of-the-art renovated kitchen where my friend tossed a salad in one of her eight fabulous salad bowls (having a wedding pays off) and patted her burgeoning belly.

One thing’s for sure. Sister’s Graduation + Mom’s Gray Hair + Friend’s Baby = Things Have Changed.

The point is THINGS HAVE CHANGED. Strangely, I’ve been feeling nostalgic for the era of my life that seems to be coming to a close. I’ll call it the Sex and the City Era, or the My Own Fabulous Apartment Era, or the old cliche “my twenties…(and early 30’s).” Let’s just say that there was this space of time between college and the place I am in now which is oddly enough at the doorstep of making a commitment to love, family, and house (I’m humbled by how boring my goals sound). This time can be anywhere from 6 months to an eternity. But I think a good solid ten years of being single and solo out there in the great wild of an urban center is a healthy growing experience. It was also, for me, the motivation that ultimately led me to want to make the kinds of ties and community that make people’s lives meaningful.

I’m grateful for those years and yet I’m ready to move on with a vengeance.

Just for today, I feel like a graduate.
