So, everyone has those friends that you hung out with when you were 5. There's pictures of you when you were younger, but as you grew up and went to high school, you did not really stay friends. You know the kind of person i'm talking about? You always smile at them in the hallways, because you know that you used to be friends, but that friendship has clearly faded over the years.
Well, sometimes maybe you should do more than just give them a smile every once in awhile, because you never know when they might be gone.
I've encountered this recently when a friend like this passed away last week, and it was truly a terrible situation. My whole entire high school class was definitely effected by it. It made me really think about how to seize the moment, always do the things that are going to make you happy and always let the people you love know how you feel about them. In this situation, I wouldn't go to the extent that I 'loved' her, but we really lost touch when we went to college, and that is something I would change if I ever had a time machine...
