Today was a very happy day for me.I met two of my very old friends of my college time. We all live in same city but life has become so busy that we hardly get time to see each other. After graduating from college we all got busy with our jobs that we could not meet each other. The best part was one of her got engaged and came with her fiance. It always feels so good to meet your old friends with whom you have spent some of the best days of your life.

Chance meeting with old friends, especially from school days can be a pleasant experience. How many of us take care to nurture childhood friendships. Generally we move on and miss out on relationships that can be nourishing and rewardin. I mean it is easier to trust childhood friends than the new friends we make as grown ups.

It is important to keep making new friends, all the same. Internet is another avenue of making new friends and I have made a few as well. How about you Harmony, do you have online friends and how do you feel about them?

Indeed, to trust childhood friends is lot easier than the friends made in later stages of life specially in professional world.

Hi, cellphone has made our lives very easy to communicate with our friends. Henceforth, you can maintain relation with them through cellphone. It is told that out of site is out of mind. If you do not maintain, then gradually a gap would create between friendship. Have a very nice day.

Cellphone is indeed a way of communication and I do make use of that on daily basis but talking on phone and meeting peson is quite different. Meeting with them, seeing the laughter at each others faces, eating the stuff we used to have together was realy an awesome experience.

Yes I do like the feeling of meeting old friends for a long time. You can talk for hours since so much has happened to each of your lives. It's also quite goo reminiscing the sweet old memories when you and your friends were together back in the days when you were young. I have met a few old friends here and there and it's a very happy feeling.

Meeting old friend is really very rejoicing. I have made up in my mind that now onwards I will meet them often and would not miss any chance to get together.

I had a large number of friends when I was in high school.We used to play football.Those were the days when cricket was not a craze.Now most of them have settled in other cities.We talk to each other over phone.Three years back one of them suddenly came to see me after a long gap of ten years.I could not recognize him first when I saw him.He had to introduce himself to me.And then we both burst into laughter.He wanted me to take him to all the places where we used to play in our childhood.He met my mother and former primary teacher who is now retired and old.
It was a really a thrilling experience that enabled me to relive my childhood.

Whenever my college friends and I have a chance to meet we do it.. specially when someone just arrived from abroad.. and it feels great and were just happy to see each other and having fun reminiscing our beautiful friendship.. I hope we can meet more often but we can't because of the busy schedule we have..

I can understand the feelings.It brings great memories and many nostalgic moments to life.I am sure you would enjoyed the things .And it is evident from what you have briefed here.Sometimes we are also happy to see friends and their family or extended family.The bonding also sometimes become stronger.Well,once we enter the professional life, it becomes hard in many ways to get in touch with friends especially face to face.And then we have a family and personal life to take care and also balance it.Some of us would have relocated places and countries.But then keeping in touch with some of the friends needs less effort if we tried.Social media to an extent helps all of us.It helps in connecting with old lost friends and get to understand the likes and interests without spending time with them.In many ways, that is also fun and caring as well.But nothing is great than a reunion and spending time with all of your friends.Physical bonding is always special no matter what relationship it is.I hope you have enjoyed.I also need to meet my friends although i met some of them last year.Hope i could get things moving.I too would like to spend time with my friends.Thanks!

I am still in collage, but I really miss my school friends. We study in different universities around India. The time I had spent with them is really memorable. My collage life will be over in a few months and I'll be looking for a job then. I have made several new friends here. Thinking about a life without them really pains my heart. Phone calls will surely be made but spending time with them them is what I will miss most. Who knows how much time I can devote to my friends after having a job. I am happy that you got to meet your old friends. Hope that I get to meet them also after a few years.

Life after college is really a big difference. I also had same feeling when my college days were getting over. But this is the demand of life that you have to move on. Make full fun in these last days so that you can gather more happy moments that will be cherished forever and will always remain in your memory. Its not that tough, you can always plan to meet after college as well but definitely you wont be having that much time to spend with them. Frinds of your education time are the best pals, generaly you cant get such type of friends in professional world, but I am very lucky to have some very good friend in my job as well.
