"No one remembers the money you spend on decorations just the people that are there.

Don't base your impressions of reunions on your 10th because you really haven't had
time to grow as a person yet.

The 20th reunion is much better because you have grown and are comfortable with who
you are. You find out that those snotty cheerleaders and jocks were not really snotty but incredibly shy confused teenagers. The ones that were wallflowers in HS have now
blossomed into fascinating people.

Never hold grudges on what someone might have said to you or did something to you in school. It was the frame of mind of the adolescent who said the words and you too
took the meaning of what was said with a child's mind.

The 30th reunion was the best, followed by a 50th class birthday party 2 years later
and many gatherings afterwards. We are now "comfortable" in our skins (fat or skinny)
and comfortable with whom we are as persons. We are now not judgmental but more kind, accepting, and empathetic of not only others but of ourselves.

Being over 50, we know that the extra pounds, grey hairs, or the lack of hair are not
who we are. When we walk into the next class reunion people will not be looking at us
but into our eyes and hearts, seeing the young person that was full of life and hope
and also an older person that may have experienced too much heartache and
disappointment.

We have finally "grown up"."
