I found out that a friend of mine from high school passed away recently.
I'm sorry to hear that, are you alright?
Yeah, I'm doing okay. It hit pretty hard because we were pretty close back then, but had drifted apart the last few years. I wish I hadd taken the time to do more with him.
That's understandable, life goes so fast that it's easy to lose touch with people you care about. All I can do is try to limit that occurrence.
