Ten years ago, I resumed the life I had paused after my divorce and started college again, thanks to the prompting of my best friend. Ten years ago, if I had been granted a chance to glimpse my life now there is no way I’d believe it was real. Return to college, intern at the Rape Crisis Center, work for the Rape Crisis Center, meet Kimberlyn Mueller, have Vincent Daniel, get poached by Texas Association Against Sexual Assault, have Kayleigh Clarisse and just be living my best life.
When I became a hermit, I didn’t have a plan for the future. To be honest, before that I also didn’t have a plan. Be a postman, play World of Warcraft, smoke and watch movies. No thought of tomorrow.
My current life would not have happened if it wasn’t for Leo Wittnebel. Though he is no longer with us, he’s one of the reasons I am where I am. He’s keeping our garage band guitars in tune while waiting to jam again!
