Mine was cancelled as it should have happened during covid.
I might have gone just to see a few people I enjoyed hanging out with, but lost touch with. And it’s okay, life happened and we all moved on to something else.
I still have a few friends from high school I see on a regular basis, so maybe I have actually regular high school reunions?
It’s been over forty years since I graduated, and people organized a few of them since. I went to a 25 year reunion, I think it was. It was strange, really. There were only 110 people in my graduating class, and maybe half or two thirds showed up. I wasn’t close to many people, but it was good to catch up a little with some that I liked.
The one thing that made me really glad that I went was that I ended up at a table with a guy who had been kind of a bully generally, though not to me personally. At one point, a guy who had been a quiet/nerdy type came by and said hi to all of us, asked us all what we were doing. When he left, the bully said, “Well he was was nicer to me than I deserved. I made his high school years hell. I don’t deserve any kindness from him.” He seemed genuinely regretful.
I’ve thought about that a lot over the years - about how who you are today is going to always be with who you are in the future, even if you change.
