I had the best afternoon today. An old friend from college was up in our state, staying about 2 hours south of me. It is supposed to be 1.5 hrs away, but living where I do, there is always traffic. It was a nice ride by myself to see her, taking more than 2 hours to arrive. She is staying with other college friends from our 'group' who have been married for quite a while. Just visiting and talking with the 3 of them was such fun! A little reminiscing, laughing about how we're all older and have to work to keep the weight off, and talking about child rearing.... To enjoy the fact we're all still walking with the Lord was the most satisfying part of it all. We had all been in FCA together.
Sometimes it is easy to forget my college years. I sort of jump from high school to when I got saved during college, and then it is just marriage, children, homeschooling...
I loved being with these folks talking about familiar things from 18 years ago, and sharing how our lives are now. I hope God gives more opportunities like this.
