Homecoming

I'm coming home again.
Do you think about me now and then?
Cause I'm coming home again
Coming home again.
Kanye West ft. Chris Martin- “Homecoming”

Greetings folks. It’s been eleven months since I left Chicago. Eleven months since I walked away from a great job to be closer to my family. Eleven months since I made one of the toughest decisions in my life. I have no regrets about leaving. It was a hard choice but a necessary one. I’m confident enough in my abilities and in God’s power that my career will still be what it’s supposed to be regardless of that decision. Plus it’s not like I’ve been out of work, my bills unpaid, or that I’m not enjoying what I’m doing. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t say I missed the city and the wonderful people I met there.

Tomorrow I’ll be heading back to the “Second City” to see some friends and people that after a year working next to them and with them they became like family. I miss them like crazy and sometimes I look at the collage photo frame they gave me as a going away gift with pictures of us and just smile and reflect on the memories.

I’ll also be going back to introduce the folks to my fiancé, whom none of them have ever met, but have heard lots about and are dying to meet. And of course we’ll be there to get it in and celebrate the pending nuptials, life and health and anything else worth raising a glass to.

So if you’re in the Chi this weekend be sure to hit me up. I’ll be where the party is. Until next time, Stay Up and Be Blessed!
