The last couple months I have been looking back at my life and looking at all my accomplishments and mistakes. It makes me think of old friends I have lost touch with. So I decided in this age of information technology there is no reason that I couldn't reconnect. So on to Facebook search I went. It amazed me how quickly I was able to find two cousins and my BFF from high school. The cousins were an easy add...but I really had to think about adding the BFF. She and I were as close as sisters. We did everything together and in fact were able to finish each others sentences. Then grown up life kinda intruded...I let her live in my house, she didn't take care of it...my boyfriend didn't like her...or her boyfriend. I left my boyfriend and messed around all while in her company, you know those type of 18 year old shenanigans. But it was enough to ruin our friendship, we stopped talking and she moved away and I haven't seen her for almost 16 years.
I missed her and I think more to the point I am kinda nostalgic for the girl I was when I knew her. I was so confident and carefree. I was convinced that I was going to take on the world and conquer it. Don't get me wrong I completely love how my life has turned out...but it is not the life I thought I would have. So I sent her a message and added her as a friend. It will be interesting to see if she adds me as well. What do you say after 16 years of not talking when you ended on bad terms. I guess we will just have to play it by ear.

People change. I have changed a lot since I was in high school. People that I couldn't stand in high school are really great people now. Just be willing to give her a chance to see the adult that she has become.
