It was first grade, and I was probably 7.
For some reason, I have always loved the swings.
Even at 21, I love being on them.
I could be on them for hours and never be tired of it.
I recall making a group of friends here in elementary school.
The social hierarchy was interesting….
There was a boss amongst the group of friends that I joined.
I always loved racing with friends back then.
I wish I could run these days and feel the wind.
Perhaps one day, I might again, with the proper equipment.
For reasons I can’t recall, I would always run away from them.
They got mad at me for running away from them.
Well, running away is typically a survival choice to avoid the threat at hand.
I was in a small California town from kindergarten through fourth grade.
My mother discussed living in Maryland for a while since we had relatives living there.
For that reason, it could help us know that family members are nearby.
I recall being asked, “Do you want to live in Maryland?” I told my mother that I wanted to live with my grandma and my aunt’s family.
