For the last ten years
While enjoying some snacks, three friends talk about what has happened in their lives since they finished college.
The three studied together, they are engineers, remembering how they stayed up late studying for their scheduled exams and much more.
One of them says: let's talk about what has happened in our lives For the last ten years
The conversation revolves around marriage and children. All three are single; in fact, they state they will never marry. One of them even says that marriage has never been in his plans. They all have partners, but no children, and have chosen to live that way.
They stay there, catching up on what's been happening in their lives, sharing stories, until they realize it's getting dark. They leave and agree to stay in touch via WhatsApp to meet up again at one of their homes and continue talking. After so much time, there's plenty to talk about.
Regards and thanks for visiting my blog.

Great they took the time to catch up although it took long and none of them have the excuse being busy with the children.
Here in Medellín, when we reunite with friends, family, etc. after a long time, we use the expression "Desatrasarnos," which means that we sit down to reminisce and catch up on what others have experienced and their current lives.
It is a good habit to invest time in another. Not many with us still do that. Families are getting small and people prefer to live the way they like most without sharing. The elderly talk more or non stop like my teacher and some in the painting group.
At times there are schools keeping reunions of a class butbInnever been there and it's getting rare as well.
If it comes to family many emigrated (after immigrations) and died. Not many left or to share with.
I'm lucky to have a large family, and we're very close. There are large families out there, but they don't understand each other; in fact, some don't even speak to each other.
That must be painful to know you have a large family and you have klno one to talk to or being close with.

And the sad thing is that what you say is true, there are families that don't understand each other, problems, fights, arguments, but it's very simple, just listen to others and then speak.
If you ask me they have nothing common with happens in many families. Listening is not the same as hearing, same for understanding what is said. Many feel neglected, not heard, not appreciated and understood. If that happens it is hard to talk, which is something you also have learn. If that doesn't run into family it is a lost case at forehand.
Time flies...
And in what way, we are already halfway through the year,
Blink a few more times and it will be 2027 already
