Catching up with friends

I met up with a friend and ex-colleague during a function this evening. Though we probably didn't speak a lot of words, it has been heart-warming to have the chance to catch up with a friend and to know they are alive and surviving. A sense of nostalgia came to me as I was catching up with the friend.

I wonder if these feelings are unique to me? Actually, I think many could have share similar feelings when they have the special chance to catch up with good friends. Do you feel similarly in similar situations?

Meeting old friends is always special. Nothing can replace those old feelings.

There are many people I would love to see again. But I doubt I have the time or energy to maintain contact after I have found them. So I don't look for them specially.

SA: That feeling is special. It rebinds the friendship.

Eastcoastlife: I have learn to acknowledge that I won't have time to maintain contact with all these people. Nevertheless, it feels good even when I get to see them by chance. :)
