A sort of homecoming

I spent a very emotional Saturday meeting up with friends I hadn't seen for over 20 years. It was great to see them again and exchange stories of what we've been doing since those school days. The first thing I noticed is that we've not changed all that much - albeit all a lot "heavier" than when we were 12 or 13 :-). More importantly everyone still seemed "familiar" - i.e. in their gestures or the way they spoke. One of the sadder points was a class photo and my friend pointing out the 3 or 4 kids who are unfortunately no longer with us. We also went for a drive around the town I used to live in and a lot of memories came back. All in all a great weekend and I hope it won't be 20 years before we meet up again.
