Old Friends

We meet new people just about every day. Some of them just pass through our lives, some stay for a short time, and some stay for a lifetime. Living in Ohio, I became friends with three women: Emily, Cathy and Tammy. And it's the kind of friendship that never goes away.

Much to my surprise, Tammy ended up in Phoenix this week for a volleyball tournament, so we were able to get together last night for dinner. One of the other players hosted a dinner at a restaurant chain he works for... and let me "crash the party". (Thanks so much for that!) I have to admit that after being apart for two and a half years, I wondered if we would have much to talk about, considering our lives have grown so much apart. But the minute she walked through the doors, with a great big hug, we were right back to chattering away as if we'd never been apart. And that kind of friendship never goes away. :)

A good friend is a connection to life
- a tie to the past,
a road to the future,
the key to sanity in a totally insane world.
