You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself, any direction you choose - Dr. Seuss
Tonight is my last night....
The closing on nearly 2 decades of devotion....
Passion....
Lively hood....
The experience's...
The friendships...
The houses....oh all those precious houses....
From the very largest of Large in Chicago....
To the smallest Condos in Tennessee....
The laughter...
The tear's....
The Champagne toast's...
The lives that have touched mine..
And for all those I have touched....
The ability to love so many people through so many years....
I will miss changing lives...
Being a part of building dreams...
Holding hands through the hardest decisions...
Hugging through the exciting moments....
The joy of key release...
Seeing people build lives in the houses I had a part of finding...
or building....
I have seen it all....
Marriages...
Babies...
New puppies...
New Kitties...
Job Loss....
Graduation....
Transfers....
Together we faced Cancer....
And Together we beat it....
I've lost loved ones with you....
I've helped remove stains from your carpet's....
Killed your Black Widow Spiders....
I was the first call when you had your first flood....
Or when you drove into your garage door....
And although you cried... I laughed.... and by the end we both laughed until we cried....
Yes tonight I am closing a door....
To walk through another....
And I know...
Because of these memories...
These experiences...
All these amazing moments....
I will move forward with a full life...
With more Joy than one person deserves in a lifetime....
You have all had a hand in shaping who I am today....
You have prepared me for this moment....
For this next step....
And I will never forget....
So tonight.... where ever you are....
Raise a glass with me...
to the next chapter....
And the new adventures it may bring.....
