New reunions

By Duvinca | The world, the life & me | 3 Nov 2020


Time passes quickly and sometimes it is difficult to meet again with those people we once knew, but seeing each other again is a positive thing.

We all have those friends that we have not seen for a long time, each one leads her life and we know something about the others thanks mainly to social networks, to a group of Whatsapp or a sporadic call. Surely we remain in virtual contact with those who continue to interest us, because with them we have lived and shared moments and experiences of our lives, and in the end, by affinities, they are the people with whom we have something in common.

But it is also true that, afterwards, our paths separate and it is almost impossible to relive those wonderful years, or only to be able to coincide again. If we are one of those people who has made friends and acquaintances or co-workers here and there, in our country and in others, we will know well that it is often difficult to balance schedules and vacations to be able to make visits, meetings or reunions with each other because now, we have our other plans, our other life.

In any case, there are those who have it easier and have those people close, with which the question ends up being reduced to a real interest in wanting to see each other. And the most distant or busy, if they really want to, they will do whatever (within their possibilities) to keep in touch from time to time, because it is always better to update us live and direct, telling our new experiences in person. And also to be able to recall moments that, as a result of nostalgia and memory, each year only seem more glorious to us.

Normally if we manage to write some messages, think of a plan, organize an afternoon or a few days, reserve a table or a trip... we will relive emotions and we will get excited about new things. Not because we are now more busy and older, we have to give up or resign ourselves to not being able to do something that, without a doubt, before we would simply do and that in fact, we have already done before.

It's okay to long for things from the past, but why not go back to doing other things and continue enjoying yourself? If we succeed, on D-day we will arrive at the bar, the square, the station or the house and our colleagues will be there. A smile from afar, a hug, a kiss and a how good I see you! Complicit glances and jovial laughter and suddenly, as in a parenthesis, we teleport to another era. I think I have already experienced this ...

We don't have much time, we know that we will soon have to return to our obligations and to our day to day, so there is much to do. We have to tell us many things: what are you doing now, how have you spent the last time, what do you know about this or that... We drink something, we toast and we always say "do you remember when...?"

We begin to tell us old stories, so as not to forget and not to sleep, we can our memories at the service of others and we learn things that we never knew. And it makes us laugh and while time has stopped.

We looked at each other and felt that yesterday was really the last time we had seen each other, although we all know that it is not, it has been a long time. And time continues to pass and we have to say goodbye, but without sorrow or sadness, we know that if we have seen each other, we will see each other again. So until the next time!

We take the way back, and we go home feeling we have been able to recover something valuable, unforgettable people and a piece of time from the past. Our adventures are not history, they are living memories.

And well, being practical, this type of reunion can also bring us other benefits, because we know how important it is today to have a network of contacts, knowing how to network can be very useful and not only on a professional level.

In our jobs, relationships with others can make a difference, both from being informed about a job position, to being able to find a partner for our project, etc. And for them, we usually go to meetings, call people and be very active.

Well, on a personal level, we must also do the same, we must maintain our contacts, take care of them and expand them, because you never know who of the people you know you can meet in a seminar, in a station or even in line for some place. And perhaps in those situations you can find out what he works or what he does, perhaps those fortuitous or long-awaited reunions can bring you more than emotions and joy, but also knowledge, admiration, help or new ideas, meet new people who contribute something to you or to whom you can contribute, or simply have even more desire to do things.

Because you never know... but we do know that people come and go, although some are just there somewhere, circling around us. It is up to you to decide with whom you want to continue sharing the present and also your future.

See you soon!
