Met with old friends the other day, where I was just thinking how everything somehow always stayed the same, with nothing eventful ever happening. Still, when you start digging into it, a number of landmarks have been made in the last few months:
. Miss I. met a man, gave her resignation, found a new job, started writing, got engaged, sold her studio appartment and bought a penthouse appartment with her husband to be.
. Mrs A. and her husband celebrated their twenty years together, and she took on PhD studies while her husband found a new passion in painting.
. Miss J. had a second baby, adopted a step child and changed appartments.
. Miss G. ended an unfulfilling relationship, finished a bachelor’s degree, started working full time, put her appartment on sale and bought a long dreamed of new appartment.
. Miss F. lost her job, found a new one, departed with her boyfriend (who left for overseas), learned to surf and rockclimb, got married to her boyfriend, applied for graduate studies and decided to go live abroad.
. Absent from our get-together, Miss K. having had three children in five years is now fighting cancer and we worry about her and her family.
. Miss A. moved with her family to Eastern Europe, moved back and completed her studies.
This is to name but a few. None (or only a rare few) of these events were on TV, but these are the events that fill up a lifetime, I guess, of our uneventful lifes …
