I saw her yesterday for the first time in 15 years.

We were born in the same hospital 3 months apart, yet grew up in different parts of the country, not meeting until we were married with children.  We each have 4 tattoos, in oddly similar places.  Long, straight dark hair and bangs; yet another similarity.  Now we are each divorced, and have discussed the strange and rare, yet not surprising similarities in a relationship that each of us has had in the last 5 years.  Almost able to finish each other’s sentences as we discuss what life has been like since we last saw each other.

Kindred spirits.  Different journeys through life, yet so much the same.  And here we are, reconnecting after many years.  How cool is that?
