Reunion

Nothing like seeing someone after 25 years to make you think about who you have become. After waiting for summer my moment came. We stood there wondering if we were one another. My best friend from ninth grade there amoungst the hundreds of people and loud music in the ever popular open space. She still had her big smile and infectious laugh. For an instant it was like junior high all over again. Then reality hit we are 25 years older no longer new teenagers but making a fast approach to midlife. Watching her and another classmate really made me reflect on who I am today. I sure have taken a journey in my short life time. I have experienced things I could of done without but have made me who I am. As the music played on I just sat there in a daze reflecting continuously. I watched the people interact around me as if I was an invisible observer. I really enjoyed the company but somehow felt disconnected from the whole scene.
