6 degrees of you and me!

It's been 3 years since I've posted to this blog...

I'm challenging myself to see if I can keep this up for at least 6 months. Will you be here when I'm through? I don't know, but I can bet that we'll still be in touch! ;)

What I do know is that I have some amazing friends that I rarely get to talk to on a regular basis. And yet, in life, we will forever remain close to each.

By a whim, I am home from work early today and turned on the television to see a special about Christina Aguilera. Now, I've never been a fan of hers, but I do like her music and watching the special about her Australian show is making me a bit of a fan. Good Show! But what it really makes me think of are my days in LA, when I was working with 'big name' musicians and exploring the world and of course, making new friends.

Then I got an email from an even older friend from college. Her announcement that she is moving to Thailand for a year. Wow! What an adventure! This reminded me of one of my very oldest friends (well, not in age but in the years, tears, laughter and fears) that we've shared together. She used to live in Thailand and I took that opportunity to go visit and fell in love with the big beautiful smiles and tastey treats of the hot and humid land that was her home for 2+years. Excited by the possibility of getting to plan another trip to this special Asian country, my mind wandered to my hosts for dinner last Friday. Wonderful friends who now live just up the street from me, had recently returned from her homeland, Thailand, where they spent a few weeks visiting family and touring the property that they hope one day to retire. What another incredibly twist of fait that all these diverse friends, none of whom know or have met each other are all connected by a foreign country... and me!

And who says we are alone on this planet?
