Reunions, Funerals, Graduations, and Baptisms

There is such an interesting mix of things going on this weekend, including a joint graduation party, a community reunion, the wake of an acquaintance who died suddenly and the welcoming of another friend's second child.

When you go through the motions of life, you realize that others are going through the same human events as you, just at different phases, under different circumstances, and with different ways to react. There is a sense of belonging...belonging to a world of people who feel feelings, face trials, celebrate triumphs and confront vulnerability. I've already had my graduation party last year, and have experienced and will continue to experience death close to me, continue to have reunions with distant friends, and experience the welcoming of friends' children and even my own later on in life.

I'd better get back to reading some treatises for work. Will post again later.
