old friends

  You have to love facebook!  It's just awesome finding old friends that you haven't seen or heard from in more than 10 years.  I'm a big nostalgic baby.  I NEVER forget anyone that has crossed my path.  And some people have influenced my life to a great deal, then we've gone our separate ways, but THANK YOU facebook, we have now reconnected.
About 15 years ago, I got into horses.  Started taking lessons from a super coach, met lots of great people.  Started working for this great coach, then went on to work for her parents.  Took care of their stables for the winter while they went away to the nice sunny states.  I met some great people while working and training there.
We tend to forget about friends from the past.  Lives change, people move, circumstances happen.  But their's nothing like the warm feeling you get when you reconnect with those friends after so many years.
Everyone should take a minute and think of all those that influenced your lives, or just did a little something nice for you on the way by, and maybe try to find them, and say "thank you!"
