shared by Steve Young, her friend from high school
When I think of Cyn these days, my thoughts are no longer filled with past memories, but ones that we missed out on... like going to each other's weddings or possibly meeting for playdates for our kids.
I can imagine us catching up over a cup of coffee and laughing about the silliness of our youthful drama, and then moving on to exchange stories about our kids.
Now that we are in our mid-thirties, I feel like there's a sense of calm and self-acceptance that didn't exist in our twenties. And I wish I could share these more important moments with her.
I often think back to all the things that I would change from the past - a few interactions that I should have handled better, but I know if Cyn were here today that there would be no need for apologies. All we would need is a good ol' "cynature" hug and we'd both know that everything is alright.
Side note: a friend of mine that I recently had lunch with gave me a big, long hug, and it reminded me of the way Cyn would hug everyone.
