Reunion Time

msmarkieanna:

Things I have learned over the years.

I am a few days away from a residents hall reunion,at The Homecoming weekend at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. The weekend will be approx.30 years after we had studied at the University. Over that time for me Life has happened, some good some bad.I have had to battle heart disease,and in a loved one Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.We have had our children,and seen them grow and go. Success and failure have come and gone professionally and personally. And then the heart ache of losing parents and other loved ones.I have longed to be young again and back in Oshkosh. But we have grown, lived, laughed, and loved. Additionally, we have have earned graduate degrees and PhD’S in The University of Life,and the School of Hard Knocks.Others have had special life challenges,for me it is Gender Identity Disorder,Which has made it necessary for me to transition from Male to Female.This is a medical condition,which has been the greatest test and challenge of my life. I am thankful for my athletic career at Oshkosh both on the Football team,and in the varsity Wrestling team.These teams gave me valuable life lessons in commitment and perseverance. I rejoice for Scott Hall basement,where I trusted Jesus Christ as Saviour.I have been comforted often that he has not forsaken me over the years.So my Oshkosh years were foundational years.I look forward to the weekend to celebrate life , in the place that has been instrumental in my life success.See Ya There!!
