Today was the going away party for two of my good friends, Rebecca and Christine Graley. Rebecca is going off to school at UCF and Christine is shipping off with the army. I'm so proud of both of them and I'm grateful that I've been given the opportunity to be their friend.
The party was a good mix of old friends and people I've never met before. Some of these people I haven't seen in four or five years and it was awesome to be able to catch up with them. Others I just met today and it was fun getting to know them as well. And there was good food, which never hurts. Mmm, ribs.
They can't teach courage in a classroom
Or patriotism or pride
Or kindness, strength, and genuineness
These virtues you possess.

Song: "Shine On" by Needtobreathe. Although I can appreciate the country folk sound that they've cultivated on their newer releases, I can't help but miss the days when Needtobreathe were just a very fine southern rock band, when they had catchy light rock gems such as "You Are Here" and this song.
