Some friendships pick right up where they left off after years of being apart. But others, well you can't go home again and expect that you will go back in a time warp. We all change. I have enjoyed this journey. Thanks, Tina, for sharing your story this month.

We weren't really old enough for phonecalls and lost touch when I moved.

I didn't tell my old best friend - I wanted to surprise her. <br /><br />When I knocked on her door, she was waiting...for her current best friend. They had their own plans for the day, none of which were the things we used to do. She invited me to join them and I did but it was a miserable day.<br />LD Mastersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01202135756299574972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-80961574017005597652013-04-29T10:49:51.304-06:002013-04-29T10:49:51.304-06:00I actually went back home and bought a little hous...I actually went back home and bought a little house. Thinking I would be comfortable in my old roots. I hardly visit anymore. Its up for sale. I figure now I will stay at a hotel and wine and dine myself from here on in with memories of what it was REALLY like. Sad but encouraging to be lifted a bit from the past. <br />KaTy Did at: <a href="http://www.lifesrideasiseeit.com/" rel="nofollow">Life's Ride As I See It</a>Kathleen Jennettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17527996189920596997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-66481270188476194932013-04-29T10:32:28.634-06:002013-04-29T10:32:28.634-06:00I feel like that when I travel home, it feels like...I feel like that when I travel home, it feels like time travel is exactly the right description.<br />#atozchallenge<br /><a href="http://expatbrazil.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">maggie at expat brazil</a><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08689615593810528846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-28032298551843766512013-04-29T08:31:47.330-06:002013-04-29T08:31:47.330-06:00Thanks for sharing your adventures.

She might as well have been on the moon. We exchanged letters. But when they moved back a year later, so much had changed for them and for me. A year in the life of a child seems way, way longer than for an adult.
