David's Story
Life
living in california, would love to reconnect.
Mt. Lebanon is HOME. I still get to see the old place about twice a year, as my Dad still lives there. Old names and houses bring warm memories, but the years have dimmed the details i am afraid. Would really like to hear from you. Attaching the value of youthfulness and formative years to so many seemingly trivial moments-- swim team, art projects, home room, junior high sports, church, choir, saturday morning YMCA, little league, first dates, ice skating, movies, football games creates a mountain of memories and high impact moments. We shared them, remember?
DePauw University i matured. What a great and inimitable time. Adult relationships and friendships, never to be re-created. I have not set foot on campus-- its too wonderful a memory. too pristine in my memory. too beautiful to tarnish by reality. I loved my life and the people with whom i thought i could never live...Expand for more
without. You know you are one of them.
Texas and Texas Instruments next. Marriage, and "coming of age". Graduate school at night, first home, first child, apartment life, first move, second job, third job, career starting. wow. How did we get to where we are now?
California-- semiconductors, more kids. divorce. shame. struggle. growth. Wow, im really a different person today. When did i start to like myself? when did family become more important than "i". Camping, skiing, homework.
Software world. .com, boom. Annie. High school kids, seemingly for ever--- when will it end? what will cause the kids to grow up, be responsible? where is my responsibility in this and where does it begin and end. what is my role. Triathlon .....again.
Empty nest. what next? what do they need? how can i help? how much do i wish to help? how much do they want us in their lives? staying relavant, finding causes. Aiding our parents.
stay tuned.
