However, majority of the time nothing eventuate beyond that chance meeting, as we go about our daily lives.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes is it because we ‘felt’ both have changed with time & evolved into different beings, to that we were familiar with?<BR/><BR/>That rather brings about the sibling issue. Are we connected to our siblings, in true sense, because of our bloodline? Is there nothing deeper than that? <BR/>Hmm….. <BR/>Sorry, got carried away with personal experiences, when you mentioned ‘Friendships’Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23964814.post-83481960372436991922007-03-30T15:58:00.000+01:002007-03-30T15:58:00.000+01:00If it's really personal, be careful. i wonder if i...If it's really personal, be careful. i wonder if it's the time of year or something, everyone's going through a bad patch,me included...Indyanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12652171216425101965noreply@blogger.com
