The power of Friends

Lately, I have been in touch with friends from high school. Some I barely knew, others, I ran with, played basketball with, and partied with. For some reason, it's the ones I barely knew who intrigue me the most. I did not know them. The day we graduated, I lost memory of them . In fact, I did not even think of them the day we graduated. It amazes me to see the photos of their childrem, read the stories of their lives. What the hell was I thinking way back when when we graduated? Of course, you don't keep track of them all. But they were not even a fly on the wallpaper of my thoughts. And now they have children, they have holes in their throats, they are in wheelchairs, they have all questioned their lives in a million ways.

Then there are the ones after high school. We happened upon each other by chance. Our lives and livers have stayed connected.
