Reunion

So you know in primary school, you make meet people that you think you are going to be best friends forever and that you will never change. But then you get into high school.

It's like those cliched teen movies where a group of 2 to 4 people, of varied combinations of genders, meet at an age between 4 and 8 and decide that they are gonna to be friends forever. Somewhere along the way one of said members of the group ends up having a crush on one of the other members (this is mainly within a covenant which has members of both genders, though same-sex couples do apply).

Then they get into high school. At this point one or more of the constituents (if not all) get pulled into the apparent social high school norm, also known as cliques. then toward their senior year, they have all seen the error of their ways and become friends again. at which they vow to be friends forever...again.

but the the talent of writers, or lack thereof, is not at liberty here.

it is the fact that people change.

I had a 'reunion' of sorts today. in all eight people attended. most of which i haven't seen in 3 years.

And it got me thinking of my friends which i have know for several years now and how they have changed. some of which haven't changed... a lot, which i can be grateful for, but that comes and goes on a case-by-case basis.

We all adapt to our surroundings. how those who have known us since before said adaption can take it however way they want, but we all change.

we can't help it. but sometimes we like to hold onto the image of our childhood best friend for as long as we can.

Anyways...
From a deranged lunatic...
I bid you farewell...
