Alcala Yearbook 2006

Rendy Lynn Opdycke

How many times have my wishes, my dreams and my prayers for you hidden in my heart? My proudest moments in life are raving a bout you from afar. Never settle for the path of least resistance. I hope you never lose your sense of wonder. If tomorrow you wake up fee ling unoriginal. or frai l– hearted .or faithless. or tired of the injustices of this world: please take a look at the accomplishments you've m ade . the brightness you've brought upon others and t he wrongs you've righted - or just call me.

Desiderata - Love always, Big Sis - Shawna
