odd coincidences and reconnecting with old friends...
life takes us to weird places sometimes.
my mom recently met a friend i had lost touch with at sam's club (of all places) and came back with phone numbers.
it was a little weird, because i'd always been a little confused about where things went wrong before.
as it turns out, it was a culmination of life things, miscommunication and just more of life. we finally met today after not having really seen or heard from each other in the last 2 years. it's a relief to realize that we both came with apprehensions, not really sure where to begin...
i think it turned out pretty well. we're going to meet again later this week.
i'm excited and wary at the same time. it's great to reconnect with a friend i'd had since middle school. i want things to go well. at the same time, it's a little daunting to reconnect while she's away in other countries and plans to be for another 1.5 years.
i guess, all i can do is try to do my part and see how things go.
this was yet another experience that seems to show how crucial communication is in relationships. and given how crucial it is in going on with life, why is it so damn hard?
