Oh yeah! A trip with the wifey to Blacksburg tomorrow. How I love these trips to the place where we met, fell in love, and got married. Blacksburg is our home away from home... our weekend getaway.
Looking back on my years at Virginia Tech it amazes me the difficulties that I had, mentally, during my first three years at Virginia Tech. Those first three years I was extremely depressed and my anxiety disorder really began to surface. I am amazed because a place that was once "hell" in my mind is now my favorite place in the world.
It is proof that our minds are very powerful. If it weren't for my father who helped me "re-center" myself during my college years I would not have this passion for Bburg and I likely would not have met my wife.
In hindsight, during my first 3 years I was living in the past and for other people. My last year at Virginia Tech I was living in and feeling the present regardless of what I was feeling.
Embrace the moment. If I hadn't I would have missed so much.
