As time passes by we change, we forget, we change our priorities and our interests. Being so busy we sometimes forget about people around us, about our friends, we get so caught into our work that we don’t have time to meet with our friends. I am trying to change this in my life. I am trying to reconnect with my friends whom I’ve missed. Since I graduated I did not have time to go out with my friend Magda, from university. After almost one year we managed to meet two weeks ago. It was so nice seeing her, we kept in contact on the internet, but it’s not the same, it was nice talking to her face to face. We realized how much we changed in the last year. I miss my colleagues from university, at least some of them, my friends. We are planning a meeting in the following weeks. Hope all of us will be able to attend.
Last week I’ve found on facebook an old friend, Jenny, the first American I’ve worked with when I was in LOC. It is like yesterday when we were going to the day-camp in town spending time with the kids, playing with them. I remember the team the two of us were having, 5 girls, all of them having behavior problems. I was difficult but nice helping those girls enjoying their summer even if it was just for one week. This was in 2002, can’t believe it was so long ago. In 2003 I’ve seen Jenny again, she came for the summer camps this time a different location, different kids, different teams but still we had a great time. We kept in contact for a while after she left but then none of wrote anymore. Now I’ve found out she has a son and she is moving with her family in Romania for a period of time to serve here and help the orphans. Can’t wait to see her again, to meet her family and reconnect. She is one of the persons that impressed me a lot when I’ve meet her, dedicated, passionate, always happy and willing to help.
I don’t want to let time destroy my friendships. I want to reconnect with my friends.
