Therapeutic weekend

I spent the weekend hanging out with two of my old high school friends. We made a pack two years ago to get together every year, so this was our second annual fling. I have been sooooo looking forward to it! I can only describe the weekend as therapeutic. There is something to be said about lifelong friends who you grew up with and know so much about. We are so far beyond the "superficial" conversations and thoughts about making a good impression or saying the right thing or wondering what they think about you. These are the friends that knew you when you went through the awkward years, and the many ups and downs of being a teenager, and they still choose to hang out with you! The conversations that we get to have now, a dozen plus years later, are so open and genuine and real. You get to talk about how life is "really" going without fear of being rejected or accused. Therapeutic is the best word my vocabulary has to describe the cherished time I get to spend with these ladies! Thanks gals! Love ya!
