Love that! I just spent a long weekend with 2 of my best friends from college too! It is so special how it is like no time has passed at all when you are with people who love you AND totally “get” you.

Fantastic! I love how we can skip right over the small talk and go deep right away if we want to. And still be light enough to poke at each other and tell corny jokes if we feel like it. I’m so glad you did that too.

Love this! To think that 43 years had passed, and it didn't matter! Thanks for the great reminder that it's our personal relationships that give our lives meaning.

Thanks, Amy. I need to remember I carry GOOD things from my past forward. I can let the bad stuff go, and hold on to things (and people) like this!

Your reunion is part of what I believe heaven will be like, Rod, without the aches and pains. Pure joy and endless reunions with all fellow believers we’ve met in our lives.

Another wonderful post. Thank you and God bless.
