By Katie Shearer I am from the red brick house where my mother grew up & Edgewood Elementary School pride I am from my three best friends right down the street, on a block where houses are close enough together to be the optimal neighborhood for trick-or-treating, 4th of July gatherings, and lots of fun while shoveling snowy driveways I am from the best cocker spaniel sibling, Parker, an only child could ask for I am from a small wooden cabin and platform tents– lakes, campfires, swimming, canoeing, the smell and sound of nature and the belief that it is the greatest gift to be outside, doing, well, not much at all. I am from Aloha Camp and Big Green Football I am from Bryn Mawr College and Marlboro College Graduate School I am from folk music, blasting radios, singing loudly & making up harmonies—whether they be in tune or not I am from teaching, learning & service I am from Armenia, Ireland & Scotland I am from Family, Enthusiasm, Optimism, Strength and Love I am from Hugs, Laughs, Energy, Smiles I am from Trying to be True to Oneself and One’s Values |
