A reunion of sorts
I went to a wedding yesterday. Two people that I’ve known since I’ve lived in California married eachother, which was weird right off the bat. Very unlikely couple, in my eyes. I guess the fact that they grew up together and we were all in the same group of friends, and the fact that they never liked eachother in the past (not that I knew) just made them unlikely. Normally people in groups of friends don’t marry eachother, not that I’ve seen.
Unfortunately lots of people from the original group have grown apart, or had disagreements and stopped being friends for whatever reason. Seeing everyone yesterday actually made me sad that I wasn’t friends with most of these people anymore. They were a big part of my life for many, many years and I would love to still be friends with each and every one of them. Sometimes life just doesn’t allow for that type of thing I guess. I was suprised I was even invited to the wedding, but honored when it was all said and done.
I was so happy that everyone was able to come together to see these two people get married, though. Even if I didn’t speak to each one, I wanted to and it was still awesome to see so many people that I had known for so long, all in one place. It was like a reunion in a way. I wish we could all actually have a reunion. The problem with that is that I doubt people would come. Sure a few would but not half of the people that came for a wedding would come for a reunion by my request. Sad. I wish friends didn’t grow apart, ever. I wonder why we have to?
