nostalgic coffee date.

I went for coffee with one of my oldest / dearest friends this evening. We met in SK and remained close friends for a very long time, she was my roommate in res in first year university. Granted we are the definition of polar opposites she is a person who has always been there for me. We have been lucky to have the sort of friendship that even if we don't speak for an extended period of time we pick up right where we left off. Our hangout tonight was a lovely mix of conversations of all sorts. She is a lovely person and the person that she has become is one that I am truly proud to call my friend. She is so independent, and strong and hearing her speak about her views on life and love and higher education to name a few were so interesting. It is so crazy to have known a person for about 18 years and see the progression of their life amount into a person who speaks with such grace and conviction. We ran into a friend who also went to McMaster and it was just the oddest thing to sit there and discuss what we are doing post undergrad as it feels like just yesterday we were sitting in a similar location discussing which res we got into.

I wish her nothing but the best in the future and know she is one of those friends who will be invited to my wedding as she has been a person not only my family I live with but extended family as well were able to have a relationship as well.

Realizing you probably made the wrong decision is not the easiest thing to come to terms with.
