Its an amazing feeling to be meeting old friends even if it is only for few moments. I happen to meet some of my close friends including couple of my friends from University in the past few months. Grateful, warm, light and being cared for - That is the only way I can explain the feeling whenever I am with them. Two of the friends I met almost after 10 years. Even then it was so easy and comfortable to connect.
You can practically talk about anything and laugh or reminisce about it. At one level there are lot of things that changes in each one's life. On the other hand they looked the same to me. Same was with them . Most of them said " You just look the same" :-). If you forgot yourself or some of your best qualities, probably it is a good idea to meet some old friends.
There is a comfort that comes with familiarity. To be able to enjoy it probably some gaps are okay. I guess one values it more as one grows in life. This is one of the treasures I have been given that I truly cherish.
Very true :)
