More about friendship

I just found some long lost friends through face book.  I'm so glad that I've kept up and can use the internet.  I hesitated about face book, but now that I do face book I 'm begining to see it's real value that is an easy way to find lost friends and to keep up.  It is so nice to be able to say hi to a friend anytime you'd like.

I'd lost my friend Mary, with whom I had gone to school. She had married not once but twice.  I had seen her twelve years ago.  She had told me her new married name and that they were moving to Florida.  I still had not kept up.  I am a terrible correspondent when it comes to the mail.  I never mind writing.  I have been know to write a letter address it and then forget to mail it.  I'm hopeless.  (But email is instant, and besides there is spell check.)  I visited one of my best friend's site and found a long lost pal from our teenage years.  Sue had listed a friend who I instantly knew was my friend Mary.  I found two friends at once and was able to get another of my High School buddies together too.

We were a three some in our High School, hanging around together.  We had a lot of fun and laughs.  Pajama parties, movies, going Downtown for lunch or just running a muck.  Old friends are the best.  It takes you back, and lets you remember and feel like a kid again.  Just talking about old times is wonderful.  I'm so happy to have found Mary again and can't wait to get together with her and my other cohort Robbie, and talk old times.  We might have to do it three ways on face book, because we live so far apart; nevertheless we can get together now.
