Tradition says that I celebrate the 4th of July with my family. We barbecue at my mother's house then travel to a nearby *spot* to see the fireworks. Always have done this. Thought I always would. However this year I wanted to change things up a little. So I celebrated the 4th with dear friends from college. It was a wonderful time and filled my soul with happiness.
I may not see my Towson friends everyday. We all come from different sides of the track. We all relate to one another in different ways. However I truly feel like this group of people have become family. Our ties back to those tigertown days are unmistakable. Our fellowship together always feels irreplaceable. No matter how much time goes by - or how much our lives change - we are all interconnected and it's always a damn good time when we see each other.
While I may not remember all of what occurred that evening, I am blessed to have celebrated the holiday with some of my best friends.
