Conversation with a school friend


School days were the most memorable days of my life. Still miss them a lot. All my best buddies are from school. Even though we are miles apart but we don’t have any inhibitions while connecting with each other at any given point of time.  We are ready to lend our support to each other at any time. 

Facebook has played a vital role is getting us stay connected with each, most of my friends are on FB. Today Sharique pinged on FB after a long time. Things started with normal conversation but then it progressed to our school days and the mischief's we used to do in school. A chat which started with just a “hi” went on to our professional challenges then to our personal life’s. How this transition happened is still a mystery for us? Even in school also we never spoke so much than we did today.

We chatted for close to an hour on FB then I requested for his contact number to give him a call. We signed off our chat on FB as longtime buddies willing to get connected soon depending upon our availability. I called him a little late and we spoke for 30 mins, it was better than the chat conversation. Constrains of chat were overcome through call and we spoke to our heart, which took us back to our school days one more time. We covered topics which we usually discuss with very close buddies or whom we know very well. 

Initially conversation was full of courtesy but once we got started courtesy took back seat and we got on to our school ways where we hardly called people by their names and called them by nick names. Both of us could identify the change in our personalities that have taken place over a period of time. It was for our betterment only. 

I didn't feel am talking to a stranger to whom I have not spoken since I left school, occasionally we used to ping each other on FB.  We can get connected with our school friends at given point of time, reason could be the innocence of the age and purity of soul.  

Thanks Sharique for making my day
