A Letter To Adventure


Dear Adventure,

When will my life begin? I feel like I can't see you anymore, and it seems that the last time we talked was my trip to Disney World six years ago.

I can't wait to see you again in my new school, in my professors and in my new and old friends.

You always surprise me, I never would've thought that you would be my new husband, and the kids we have. I also didn't expect my professor to give me that Steinway grand piano in our living room. 

It happened again, Johnny surprised me with a cruise to the Cayman Islands for our 30th anniversary. 

Well, It was my last day teaching the choirs and directing students today. I worked for 48 years and now I can live my last few years with my wonderful husband and children.

Thank you for all the time you gave me in my life. 

Yours Truly,

Mark Snider
