the 12
April 7, 2009 by cheloyskee
part of my ancient past is to belong to a group of 12 high school girls.
these 12 started with 10, who were very tight and seem to spend
almost all of their high school waking hours together, in tears, in laughter,
in admiration of NKOTB and Debbie Gibson (hehe).
2 girls were added on their senior years. and those 2 were apparently
me and another friend of mine.
years past, i never regretted being part of these 12. i learned alot about
life just by sitting in one of our ‘open forums’.
apparently, some of these girls don’t really have peaches and cream lives.
i never did thought that any hi-school girl should experience reality in its painful
version until i heard some of their stories. we are too young for pain, for pete’s sake!
we, the 12, are ‘diversity’ personified. we are all very different from each other.
we have the quiet types, who we thought would marry the last.
we have the aggressive ones, who we all thought would marry first.
(but in the end, quite the opposite happened. ha ha)
but i guess we all share one thing in common, each person has her
own personal depth of what Life is all about.. how Life has treated
each girl, from hi school through college and married lives.
and just by listening to my hi school best friend this morning as i
talked to her overseas, a lot has changed among us. we lived now
in different countries. but i know something is still CONSTANT
in each of these girls–they are still my friends. i am still theirs.
and i bet when we see each other again in the future nothing
will change in the Love that we give each other as girlfriends.
