Reunions are special events. I just got back from a wonderful weekend at my college reunion in Minot, ND. I guess the only downside was that there were a lot of OLD people there - don't remember my classmates being so much older than me!!!
You can be sure of one thing being present at the reunion of a Bible College - great singing. We had it in abundance, and I feel refreshed and empowered from all of it. It is great to go to a reunion and leave being spiritually refreshed as well as experiencing the joy of seeing old friends.
I started college 40 years ago and graduated 36 years ago. Many of those I saw this weekend, I had not seen for most of those 40 years. What a joy it was to see some of my "buddies" after all that time and pick up conversations as if we had never been apart. That is one of the ways you can tell real friends - time does not separate. I have found that to be true in my Army life as well - my real friends and I can pick up our conversations and relationships immediately. That was certainly my experience this past weekend.
I truly value those type of friends. My wish is that all of you can have friends like that - they truly make life worth living! Thanks, friends. You know who you are.
Just thinking.
