People.

So, I'm sitting here feeling the need to update the blog with the good feelings that have been flowing since the reunion and the outpouring of support. I have known this for some time, but every once in a while a moment happens when it all comes back around as a strong reminder that life is about people. We can strip away many things in our lives, and still exist as human beings...after all...we did it quite simply a long, long time ago. It's not about money, possessions, status (well, only on Facebook), success, level of education, or any other trivial accomplishment...it's about people and the experiences that are created, adored, remembered, cherished, and recreated by them on a daily basis. We can survive without many things in life...but we can't survive without people. Think about all the things that are important to you in life...and then ask yourself how many of them are possible because of, well, "people". Pretty staggering when you think about it, huh? ;-)
