If you could take a little walk down memory lane, where would you walk to?

Hello Marguicha, Thanks for responding. I too felt like school was a jail, hee hee hee, so needless to say that I was so darn happy once I graduated that I could have almost peed on myself, hee hee hee, Just kidding. But anyhow it sounded like you really had a great time while you were finishing up school. I know at that time you feel like you have your whole life ahead of you and that you can do anything. It was wonderful that you and your best friend was able to maintain your friendship through all those years. That was something that I wanted to do, which was to have the same best friend almost all of my life but things weren't in the cards for me like that. So I'm thankful that I have found this medium to be friends with nice people like you from all over the world with. My best friend and I sort of went our own separate ways after high school. But I'm hopeful that she's had a good life. I did try to reconnect a few times but I guess you could say that life just sort of got in the way. Anyhow That was a great picture you shared and I hope you will continue to have many good times ahead with your family and best friend. I enjoyed reading your comment, keep up the good work!CC

Lols, just calling it the way it really happened Msabu, hee hee hee!

Citychic..."could have almost peed on myself...." - LOL, LOL, LOL - love it!

No matter what country you are from I believe school days are the happiest ones. No worries, no adult responsibilities. You only had your whole life ahead of you.

Hello Sunny5u, It's nice to hear from you. If school days were your best time I think that you should go classmates.com a visit. There you will be able to reconnect with some of your old classmates that happen to be online and you could stay in touch and catch up on some of the events that have been going on in each others lives. I was there visiting just a little while ago and it looks like a very fun site. Please be sure to go there and check it out and see what you think. Mind you we can never actually go back to those old days and thank God some of them are behind us. I say that because there were a few classes that I took that I would never want to repeat. But as far as mingling with the other students, Yeah that was all great and I guess that is also one of the things that I really miss about being away from my old schools. Take care and please don't forget to stay in touch and keep us informed on how it's going from time to time. Stay encouraged my friend!

School days....classmates...yes.... Although I'm not certain yet what memories I would like to revisit - I agree Citychic, they creep up on you when you least expect it! This is one of those times when I have so many thoughts from so many different angles, I have to take a moment to get clear and begin coherently! LOL In the spring I began doing some stuff on Facebook - had always thought it was for younger people and kind of "silly." But then I began connecting with people I hadn't seen or talked to in YEARS! The first friends I found were from 32 years ago...we hadn't had any interaction for at least 29-ish years when our families moved apart from one another. I was blown away to see how they have grown in women with families and the lives they have created for themselves. Another friend I found still lives in my hometown area, which we visit each summer. She and I had "ended" (or perhaps "last left") our friendship in uncertain terms. There were factors involved beyond our control and some tension entered our relationship because of it. It was my senior year of high school in a very small private Christian school. When we reconnected, it was like nothing ever happened! Our correspondence was warm, light, and at times intimate, sharing personal thoughts and feelings. When we went back "home" this year, I caught up with her and it was fabulous! All those warm and happy memories we had created together came flooding back. And it wasn't so much the events that we shared and connected through...but more the feelings and love we had for one another in our friendship back then. After all, isn't that really what a fond memory holds for us.....warm feelings? Thanks for the opportunity to share, Citychic!

Hello Kiran, thanks so much for coming by, I'm happy that you've enjoyed this discussion. You know sometimes I like to try to think way down the road and at times I find myself thinking, where are we without our memories. I guess that is what propel me in life to try to make lots of good and happy memories. I agree that for most of us, our school days are unforgettable and something that really had an strong impact upon most of our lives. Enjoy your old memories and make lots of new ones! Take careCC!

Hello Taz it sounds like you had a very interesting time back during your past. I always think it's so wonderful that we have our memories. There are times when I think about people that have amnesia which is a sickness where people just loose their memories. For some people it's only for a short span lucky for them. But for others it may become permanent, I think. Anyhow I'm glad that for most of us we'll always have our memories which I feel is there to remind us of some of the happier times in our lives. Wow Taz you must have been a very different Taz if you were trying to mack two girls at the same time, lols, my goodness! You must have been something else. You was macking two when most men can't even handle one, lols. You go on Taz with your bad self, lols........ take care friend!

BTW, thanks for sharing the picture Taz, it really helped bring the whole topic of memories more alive! Great Job!

Hello gracefuldove, thanks for coming by. Yes it's always good to go home and think on those good times that we used to have. I do the same thing myself and what makes it even more special is when a few of my old friends decides to drop into my mom's house right at the same time when I'm there. Anyhow if you read the message that I wrote to the first responder you will see what I advised him to do. You might want to do the same thing in order to reconnect with some of your old friends. If for some reason you have trouble seeing the message. Just go to classmates.com and sign up. I think you will like it over there. As you will be able to run into lots of your old friends........ take care and oh yeah the teachers, hee hee hee , don't get me started, lols!
