I'm so happy to have met up with friends I have not been with for quite some time now. Though we have not seen each other for years, the "connection" is still there. Old stories reminisced and new ones shared over coffee. Nothing was planned, everything just started with an e-mail between two then one invited another and another until there were five (well, six including my friend's little one) of us meeting up in Starbucks. It was only recently that these closest friends of mine got together online through Yahoo Messenger. Sadly one of us gals were not able to join this afternoon as she is in Canada.
Many things have changed throughout the years but still the bond of friendship is there. We had to meet at around 2:00 PM which we found funny. We had to meet in the afternoon now since almost all of us have kids and it wouldn't be that easy if we set a night out like we used to do when were younger. Stories are different now... we talked more on family - children and parenting - instead of the usual "gimmick" chitchat. Then we had to bid goodbyes around 5:00 PM... wow! 2 hours (only)? coffee instead of beer? is this a sign of growing "old"??? :-)
We're all hoping that we can meet up again some time together with our other friends and with our families too.
