a bit more full circle
I once wrote, yes during the whole Adam Beck fiasco, about things coming full circle. I can't remember what full circle situation I was speaking of, because there were quite a few but today I'm going to write about one very important one. I've always said that I believed in karma, and by believed I mean like full on followed and actually deeply believe in the mystic powers of the bitch that can only be called karma. My idea of full circle is art of that believe, I guess one in the same really.
I got the opportunity over Thanksgiving when I took my unwanted trip back to Texas to sit and have a drink with an old family friend, one from when I used to live in California. Ms. Pam my family always called her. Ms. Pam had three sons. Adam was the oldest and my same age, we were only different in age by literally a few days. Aaron was the middle child and about my younger sisters age and finally Alaina, also around my younger sister's age. I'm sure some of the smart people out there can see where this is all headed.
Well, Ms. Pam told me a little story over our margaritas that night. When Adam and I were both about between 8-10 years of age Adam had a huge crush on me, so his other says. Apparently one afternoon we were hanging out most likely playing make believe as kids do and he looked at me and said that he liked me, as in had a crush on me. I, cold as ice and very serious said, that doesn't mean I like you.
I had completely forgotten this ever happened. Adam Beck pretty much said the same thing to me when I told him I loved him. Almost the same words verbatim. I broke Adam's heart and later an Adam broke mine. Full circle. Then I met Will, and Adam met his now wife. Will and I are engaged and I've never been happier a day in my life.
So today, on an ordinary Monday evening, here's to that theory of full circle and karma and everything happening for a reason. I've always believed in the theory but now, well now I believe it really is the way of the world. As I open a bottle of beer with my fabulous AAR bottle opener, I drink to my theory of full circle. Yes, here's to that.
