Gold Friends

Back when I was a Girl Scout we used to sing, “Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver but the other is gold.”

Thanks to the internet and other modern technology I’m now able to keep in touch with old friends I hadn’t seen or heard from in decades.

But that’s still not as good as seeing them face to face in real life.

In a few weeks I plan to attend a high school reunion and I can hardly wait to see some of my gold friends in person. 

Of course now most of us have silver, not gold, brown, or red hair, but we’re all still kids on the inside.
