You've just received an invitation to attend a school reunion and
you're wondering what to do. You glance down at your paunch and
remember the firm slenderness of your youth. You don't want all your
classroom peers to see how you've let yourself go. Well, don't worry.
You can bet the years haven't been kind to them either. Just go, it'll
be worth it.
You can reconnect with those friends who gave meaning to your life and cock a snoop at those bozos who said you'd never amount to anything. And perhaps you'll rekindle old friendships and connect with those you never really got to know.
It's a great way let go of old baggage. Perhaps you're still smarting at how Dolly snubbed you at the Xmas dance 23 years ago. And you're just itching to go up to her and sneer 'well look how you've turned out'. Well, don't do it. What you took as a snub was probably fear or shyness.
The fact is that most people leave their school reunions strangely elated. It beats any soap opera to see the changes in people you once knew and to listen to tales of their struggles and victories and despairs. And for a moment, you can return to those days when you were slender and the adventure of life lay ahead of you.
