Long, long ago

[vaneramos]

Curiouser and curiouser, turn the gardens through the doorways of my life. It would have been enough with my mother's sisters wishing to induct me back into the family, and a livelier correspondence rising with a cherished cousin, Cathy, on my father's side.

But now turning up are friends from long, long ago, whom I didn't know how to contact, and

I have known a few times like that in my life, when connections seem to appear everywhere, and I have found they were very significant moments. How lovely!

[vaneramos]

It makes me wonder what's going on! But the connections are mostly happy ones, so I'm pleased to flow with it.

The photo is wonderful. I love the sidelit trees.

Congratulations on remaking all these connections. That sounds very cool.

Thanks. I took the photo on the way to work one morning last week. Everything was covered with hoarfrost. It was a spectacular day.

It's funny you writer about this when i was contemplating this morning weather or not I should go to my HS reunion next month. I'm not even sure what I would find talk about to acquaintances from back then...

I don't think I would have much to say to most of my classmates, but Sarah and Scott were part of a different circle of friends sharing many common interests. I guess I was fortunate to have that in high school, but more often I tend to recall the unpleasant experiences from that time.

its always fun to reconnect

[vaneramos]

I'd say often, not always. ;-)

[jeffbriggs]

actually I would agree

[vaneramos]

Yeah, there are a lot of people from my past I would rather not see again. Unfortunately, for many years I've let that discourage me from contacting the ones who would be, as you say, fun!
