It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.
Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend - or a meaningful day.
I used to do my best thinking while staring out airplane windows. The seat-back video system put a stop to that. Now I sit and watch old' Friends' and 'Everybody Loves Raymond' episodes. Walking is good, but here again, technology has interfered. I like to listen to iTunes while I walk home. I guess I don't think anymore.
Age appears to be best in four things; old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read.
To reminisce with my old friends, a chance to share some memories, and play our songs again.
