Looking Forward To MY 40th High School Reunion !!
Long Ago Memories of Crowed halls filled with chatter; Sharing daily happenings and things to us mattered. Room to room we gathered in such was our lot, Friendships forged, some lasting lifetimes, some not. To look back in the looking Glass, of Classmates andFriends, May open the door to Friendships, so they may liveAgain. Who knew, when we were rushing, to reach year's end We would find the time too short to be with Friends. Worrying about the next test we may be about to blow, The football game, hair and dress and clothes; Who was who, what was what and the Music, so cool. Wondering, sometimes, why we ever had to be in school! Away me marched, scattered to the corners of the Wind, We had college, jobs, marriage and a new set ofFriends. Our attention was given in struggling to make, "TheGood Life"Or a Relationship with a husband or a wife. The years skimmed by, we looked for we wanted, Working hard to fulfill our Dreams, to finish what weStarted. A car, a home, a boat, a trip, new shoes, new clothesAnd stuff; We learned about ourselves and found our parents wereNot so rough. We found our Parents voices coming out of our ownMouths ! Scolding our own Children not to be so Loud ! The Circle of Life Goes Round And Never Ends, Each is joined link by link with Family and Friends. Each of us Traveled our separate Roads which brings usHere Today; For all our travels, in the Journey of Life,Friendships here have Stayed. It may have taken 40 Years to come to the WonderfulTruth, No Friendships Can Replace The Friendships Of OurYouth !
LOVE YA, ~BARBARA ♥ ♥ ♥

I remember being notified (some years ago) about my 40th high school reunion. It was shocking how many people in my graduating class had already died. They died in their 50\'s or earlier. We can never take life for granted.
Hope that you have a lovely time!!
loving hugs

All so true! What a great trip down memory lane. I hope you have a wonderful reunion!! I always loved my class reunions.
My Hubs class is doing something together all the time; even if it is lunch or meeting for dinner to discuss the next activity. Which is really funny to me because I always thought he had the most boring class. lol

just tried to post and its not letting me.
enjoy your reunion. i know someone who met someone she didn\'t know in highschool at one of those reunions. she didn\'t marry him, but it was significant, so they can be fun i guess.
