Home, Sweet Home – Making Our House Into a Home

On Tuesday of this week, I had a very strange thing to happen.  I ran into an old friend from high school.  He was here at the school working on a copier.  We made small talk then I went about my way.  As I was making my way back to my room, he called after me. 

Flashback: He and I had been great friends in high school, spending a great deal of time together during our senior year.  When I went off to college, we did a few things together and tried to keep in touch.  During the spring of my Freshman year I found out he was engaged.  I didn’t even know he was dating anyone.  For a naive little college girl, it was heartbreaking. 

Now:  When he caught up to me, he said he needed to ask me a question and then asked me to forgive him for not inviting me to his wedding.  Strange.  It has been 10 years and he’s asking my to forgive him.  I’m not sure what was so strange about it…the fact that he asked for forgiveness or the fact that he still thought about me after being married for 10 years.  I’m still not sure what to make of it, but it was definitely strange.
