For my Friends

Every year as a new season approaches, I feel as though a chapter of my life is coming to a close. Though it doesn't make me sad it allows me to look forward to a whole new chapter. A chapter filled with many new friends, experiences I could not even begin to predict, and another chance to begin a whole new story for myself. I always reflect back on my past and though there are many painful parts, their are so many wonderful memories that stand out among the rest. I have had amazing opportunities in my life but those wouldn't be as memorable without the people who helped me get there or the people I was lucky enough to share them with. I have traveled Europe once with my best friends in high school, and again with three of the coolest ladies I know. I have cruised the Caribbean with one of my best friends (even though we were both injured haha), I have lived through the ups, the downs and come out with a smile because of the people who were there through it all. I have so much more to do and much to share with every new friend I meet. I look forward, with every ounce of joy, anticipation, and wonder to what is next in life for Tucker Hawkins. I don't need to individually thank all of you who have been there for me because you all have the memories that will stay with the both of us until the end of time. The world is a small place and the short stories we all share will only continue to be written......
