I heard your voices today, as layers of time melted away. The laughter, the smiles I know that were there, the shared moment of singing a song together as one . . . it was like reaching deep into a pocket of joy, that at one time kept all of us sane, sincere and kind; a pocket of my favorite people and moments, in that kind of office setting ever.

All of you were there when I started my first website of “Moods” . . . you were there to support and encourage the somewhat creative side of my journey, despite the obvious greenery of my attempt. The moods I shared, the web pages I created, and even the ones trying to capture the essence and positivity of each of you and what that meant to me; all of that was an important part of my creative journey, and for that I will always be thankful.

What mattered more than that though was the friendship. Through the highs and lows of an early time in our lives, it was the commonality of our positive vibes, good and fair intentions, silly sense of humor, and kind and loving hearts . . . that made it all much better. From taking beanie babies as hostages, to card playing lunches; from movie nights and after work outings . . . to office work, activities, parties and more. It was each and every one of you, my friends that made the journey worth it. I look back now and all I feel when I do so, is warmth, laughter, smiles and love.

I miss you guys; and as we all know, missing people is an incredible gauge of moments together once shared . . . so that being said, I miss you all with much of my heart.

To Mario, Maggie, Opus and Robocop, and many others I’ve worked with as well; love you all, for always.
