Thanks DC

Goodbyes are tough, especially when you are too busy to remember them!  Today happened so fast, yet so much happened.  I felt as if I was APART from the significant moments of the day and not A PART of them.

I look at the calendar on my wall (which should be taken down and packed by now) and can't comprehend how March is already coming to a close and with it, this huge chapter in DC!

Thanks for the memories DC, and the lessons learned along the way.  You have given me the opportunity to make incredibly inspiring and intelligent friends, and I've been challenged in ways I wouldn’t have experienced anywhere else.

Frederick Buechner puts it beautifully when he says "It was a long while ago that the words God be with you disappeared into the work goodbye, but every now and again some trace of them still glimmers through."  So DC, may you continue to challenge, excite and inspire people like me who come, and continue to be that for those that stay. As I leave this home I have created to head back to a place I know I can always call home, I will be grateful for this time.
