#NtseegKuv10Years: I’d Hug Her

Where were you when you saw this poster in 2010?

I saw this again for the first time in a long time today, and I actually cried a little.

I cried for her naivety;
For her desire to create a second time;
For her courage to trust again;
And for her leap of faith.

Seeing this now, I can look at her like an older, proud sister and hug her in my heart. ❤️ #NtseegKuv10Years

P.S. Do you miss the old MySpace days too?
