Good friends are back

A good friend of mine has moved back into town and we hung out this weekend. He seems really happy again and sure of what he is doing with himself and I’m really glad for him.
And one of my closest friends from high school found me on myspace today. He had moved out of state about a year after high school, but we kept in touch. But then he moved a few times in the past several years after that and we unfortunately lost touch. We talked for a couple hours on the phone today and it was great to catch up a bit. I thought about him a lot since I’d seen him last and there were moments and events that happened that I wished he could have been around for. I always wondered how he was doing.
It’s kind of a coincidence because they both sort of always reminded me of each other anyway. But I met them at different times in my life and I don’t think they even knew each other.
There are a lot of people that I know who turn out to be shady people, so when I have some close friends who are actually cool, it sucks when I don’t get to see them as much. So I’m thankful when they are back in my life.
