Life Time Friendships Part 2

I did have my reservations with this due to the fact that I have never placed a person’s picture on here. Of recent that is.  But he knew I would be doing this at the tail end of our one to one breakfast which lasted for a good two hours.  I would suppose everyone does.

It was nice to say the least - great time as we had.  I have nothing against his wife, it was just very nice for that one to one time.  I think you would know what I mean.  Ironically there are some things that are happening with his sister – boy it seems that everyone has something at some time.  But now and then you have to say why not.  Pat was late in our get morning meeting due to things that were going on.

However we talked and talked. The last thing on my mind was to take pictures it was not really even a consideration but there is more than just the image.

But that all said he is a tremendous pharmacist that goes back and forth to lecture along with maintain his own way of life.  Yes he is a best friend and we talked about many things and ironically how I was amazed with how much he had changed – yet I have changed as well, I am not the same person by way of image.  So many times we look at things by only the manner of the pictures.  He is always was a slighter guy - but always full of wit and a manner about him that is within his own way.  His manner of speaking and his ethics within his family are supreme if you ask me.

We had settled out some things that had needed to be done for some time, not between him and me just another fellow that we used to chum with.  Aside from all that we were able to talk about everything and thereafter he had to hit the highway after picking up his own family but the first thing I said to him was “you aged”, he is a sporty fellow and he said “so did you”.  Yet image is not everything it’s the manner that you carry yourself within life, in my opinion.  And yes we all do age but I guess we all do within different ways.

Pat was never that one to reach for the stars – but he dedicated himself to just a few things and nothing more.  Within all my friends that I have known I think he really is the wisest in many ways.  We have made some plans and I do look forward to it.  Pat is a very practical person.  Actually aside of his coaching with a youth team within hockey and medicine - I find the contrast that differs yet is appreciated from both of us is that we respect those differences.  I will say hit, man he certain became gray - not that there is anything wrong with it.  But it just seemed like yesterday and he still had much more hair.  It seems like just yesterday I had seen him yet we have always kept in touch.  We have always been like brothers yet the great thing about it is that we do have our own areas that we enjoy.

Who would have thought that two guys that never knew each other and were placed in the same residence dwelling would have kept as friend for all these years and still be able to laugh at some of the old jokes as well as talk on things that were of importance to both of us.

"But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life; and thanks to a benevolent arrangement of things, the greater part of life is sunshine."
