I had to pay a visit to my Alma mater this afternoon to get some things sorted out. (It's still strange that I can refer to that place as my Alma mater.) I figured I'd take the chance to catch up with friends. Unfortunately, the usual suspects had work, class, or just didn't respond, but I did get to catch up with two people I haven't seen in months.
It's amazing when you can find sympathy, similarity, and solace in the most unexpected of places. (How was that for alliteration?) I was lucky to have met up with this friend today. We've never been super compatible, but I've usually been one of his confidants in the past. Today surprised me and found us switching roles a little bit. I found a maturity and insight that's never been there before. Being in a relationship for three years has definitely changed him in a million ways, especially considering all the complications they've had along the way.
In any case, it was refreshing to hear such a different perspective from the ones I'm used to. I'm impressed. I'm also amazed at how easy the discourse was ... then again, he's one to never stop.
You've come a long way, CK.
