Cherished memories

" our minds are filled with priceless memories of childhood holidays, first crushes, and great parties never to be forgotten. Describe a few of your most valued memories." 

I am sure I will use this cherish challenge more than once for there are so many memories.

I was a junior in high school, felt awkward and ugly in my own skin. I was part of the prom committee, spent every waking moment in the gym decorating and planning. I did not have a date in fact the popular girls kept laughing at me cause I was giddy at the idea of dancing the night away. Then it happened the " most popular " and by far in my mind ,best looking  guy in my high school asked me to prom. I literally cried. Prom was amazing and on top of having the best date with shaving cream wars and dinner I was yet again surprised when I was crowned prom queen. I did dance he night away. 

I sat in the water the water fall just behind me , my eyes close I can feel the waters healing energy flowing over me. There is others around me yet I feel I am the only one there with the water embracing me and blessing me. I can see the world clearly, I am at perfect peace. 

Christmas of my first year of college I had very little money and my family were struggling, the only way I got to come home was my uncle gave my dad a jar of coins. We had gone to a Christmas party and where coming home to a small but happy Christmas at home , when there it was two huge boxes if gifts and food. It was a miracle. The live felt in the house that night was so great. 

 

 A back pack and a small duffle bag in the trunk Mary begged me to not do it as she drove me the five hours. I told her not to worry I would be back to sing with her soon yet she still worried seeing how I did not know how I would be getting home 4 days later. She dropped me off at the front doors and I watched her drive away. That was like watching my old ways of life driving away and I would not ever be the same. That was the day I took on my life. I did not come back 4 days later but two years later but those 4 days where the best days if my life and they just keep getting better, even with the ups and downs. 

I just wrote a few... 

I invite those that read to comment below some of their cherished moments, I would love to see!
