MIDLIFE FRIENDS RETURN TO HIGH SCHOOL

Everything was so much simpler back in high school. Really?
Most memories of high school revolve around our friends - or lack of them.

What can our high school friendships teach us? It's time to take a trip
down memory lane and find out.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Friendship patterns develop when we are young. To move forward, it is
instructive to uncover our past - at least parts of it - and determine what patterns need
updating.

UNHOMEWORK
- Did you have many high school friends? Did you have just one or two?
- Was it easy or difficult for you to make friends?
- How did you select your friends? What qualities attracted you?
- Would you (now, as an adult) choose those same friends today? Why? Why not?
- Did your friends select you?
- Why do you think they chose you? What qualities did you offer?
- Would your childhood friends (now, as adults) pick the current you as a friend? Why? Why not?
- Have any of your high school friends remained in your life?
