When a golden heart stops beating

I love 99% of the people that I meet in my job  ( well there's always that 1% !!!  )
Seriously there great.  And usually while there waiting for the appointment they tell me a little about themselves
So over the last 18 months that I have been in my job I have heard quite a few stories...and some of the px come back every 6-8 weeks....so I get to know their life story .......
Take today....I'll call her my Frend...(cus truthfully I talk to em more than I talk to my frends )  lost her husband a while back...married for 50 years....(That's a life time for some)  she said
'I spose for sum they might be glad to b rid of em !!!!  But not me...he was my soul mate...my Frend...been togetha since we was teenagers'
She told me how he told her he wouldn't leave her and how she feels he hasn't...she tells him all about her day and what she's done...
'Bet ye think I'm mad don't ye ? ' she asks me
No I don't think you're mad....  I think u miss your soul mate very much indeed

Mini Reunion..very special

So I have a get 2getha with my oldest frend today..



When i use the term Mini i mean in the amount of people who will b at this reunion....just me n you....


 
Like many old dear frends, we  can go for days, months, and yes even years without seeing each other.
Meetin up is always so comfortable....as if we were only together yesterday......
A freind that you can discuss your deepest fears with ( and listen to theirs )
Tell your deepest secrets to ( and know that it will go no further )
Laugh and cry !!!!   together ( and not feel weird )
And know that if it is many years til we next meet, that they will always b there, at the end of the phone, ready to pick up where we left off ....accompanied by some nice refreshments!!!!!

So without doubt that means non stop chat for the entire date....which more often than not can be in excess of 4 hours...so a good suply of Costa or Chardonnay is a must
So its been 12 months since i last saw my old frend.....previously it has been as long as 3/4 years....
Catching up on the last year events and gossip is a must.....
Which always begins with a good old hug.....
  

''Neva''
''Really''
''OMG''
''No way!!!''

 ''U can not b serious''
Who wud av thought!!!!!!!
we chatted over old camp fire stories that we never seem to tire of.
Now that always causes a chuckle!!!!!
  
Our date came to an end all too soon..... and all that was left was to say our goodbyes.and promise not to leave it as long again....
A hug and she was gone
And yes although we have obviously both changed in different ways over the last 30 or so years.....we are still undoubtably those same old frends from yesteryear......

Thank The Blessed Lord for my old frend
