THIS MORNING---I received some news about a change that would be taking place on my next virtual YLC meeting. My best friend Camille asked if she could nominate me for the spot of being next in line for the chairperson on our committee. I immediately told her that she could go for it and honestly, it is just more surreal as time passes on to think I could get picked to tackle this new role. Just because I've gotten this nomination doesn't necessarily mean I'll end up with the task of being chairperson for our committee--that has been a part of my life for three years. I am obviously sitting here thinking that I may not end up being the person for this new leadership role and yet I was clearly told that no other member is young enough for it??? What is that even supposed to mean?? I mean, there are probably so many other people who have served on our committee that would legitimately do a hundred times better job than I ever could in a position like that one. I may come across slightly biased about all of this in a way that I am certain never should have been my intention to begin with and yet I will be grateful for an opportunity of a lifetime. This YLC has been turned itself into a safe haven for me even despite the hard times I was going through in my life and not realizing what was going to come from it later on. I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn new skills from the best of the best in our state and making an entire new set of friends that I truly admire so much. If I can make this long story short-- I am very much grateful for the amazing people who have put up with me in ways that none of them clearly deserved, but have continuously reminded me of all the many things I can do. Please stay tuned for lots more updates to come at a later time!!!
