Every now and then you develop friendships which you hope last a lifetime. Friends that you might now see regularly. Maybe you don't talk for months, but when you finally do, it is as if no time has passed at all.
I am blessed, lucky really, to have such friendships. Six friends from my freshman dorm floor, all of us really different personalities, yet all of us good reliable friends. These are the kind of friends that I know will come to my rescue when I'm heartbroken and hurting. These are my friends who rejoice with me, who challenge me, who ground me. And I can't wait to spend a weekend laughing over the newest time in our lives. I hope that in 10 years, we'll still be getting together once a year. That by then we'll be discussing the trials and tribulations of kids and career changes, and aging parents. Some have already been through troubling times. But I think we are unique in that we have stood by each other in our tears and joys. And I hope that we'll still be standing next to each other when we see our 25th college reunion loom before us.

I hope you all have a great time this weekend. I so wish I could be there too but I'll be at the next one.
Love you.
