Attended a reunion yesterday and saw friends that I had not seen in years. There were body,facial and changes in appearance but there were the residing characteristics that made the day so wonderful.Everyone had made a dent in changing the world for the better, and as each person regaled where they had been through the years I felt a sense of pride in having been fortunate enough to know them.The days of youth had vanished ,but the residue of friendship burned as brightly yesterday as the days when we launched into the work that so filled our lives with dedication and meaning.It was a gift to be in the presence of such human treasures, and today my spirit is filled with the knowledge that all of them are part of who I am ,and their gifts have once again enlightened my mind.
