I have also become better friends with acquaintances from my past- some of them I never though I would see again or speak to again until I realized that I have a lot in common with them, or a lot to learn from them.
I have also lost touch with some friends - which is sad, but it happens. I know if our paths ever cross again, we will pick up where we left off.
I have met a handful of friends since moving to Red Deer. I can honestly say I never thought any of them would have become as important or as meaningful as they have. This group of ladies has touched my life in countless ways. They have helped me celebrated good grades, good news and happy days.They have been there for me when I bambed an assignment or test (even if they aced it), whe I quit my job, when I ran out of money, when I have had family problems, been lost, confused and lonely.
I didn't realize that they cared or that we had transformed from classmates to friends until I got a stern lecture from three of them, in front of most of our English class about worrying them like crazy when I decided to brave the roads during a horrid winter storm.
I am not sure when I had my so called break-through with Andrea, but I am sure it involved food, TV or tears.
What I am saying is I am grateful for all of you - my old friends, my new-old friends, my new friends and the ones that have moved on. Each of you have helped me become the person I am today.
