Friends Reunited - October 2012 Edition!

Signs - they are all around you - how you read them - and what action you take is solely up to you.

Hello Blogland -

A total break from Reality

First of all, this post is going to be similar to my Friends Reunited Post in the August section of my Blog - see link on the Right. - it will also be a bit Spiritual, possibly Deep and Meaningful - but full of positivity and lots of hope for the future!

A couple of weeks ago I was walking in town, and looked in a Card Shop window - there was a Calendar - and the front Slogan said something like Keep believing in your dreams - they will become Reality" - or something like that, not quite "If you Build it - He will come..." but it was that sort of thing.   It stuck in my mind, and then got filed away in my braincell.  

I have been hoping to meet up with my Long Distance Friends for years and years now, and 2012 has been the magical year that Fate has mysteriously started to bring us all together again - and for some strange reason, Paris, London - and Corina seem to be the keys.   1 great day in RG in May (Corina, Reiko, Birte), 1 amazing day at Olympics Wimbledon (Mariano, Corina, Birte & Alina) in July, then 1 really unique and lovely day at London in October (Ernie) - (Please Fate - can we have some more?).

So... last week Corina and I are talking on Facebook, Venus Williams is playing Belinda Bencic in Luxembourg (thrilling I hear you all say) -

YES! this is quite amazing - when you find out that Marcus, Don and Ernie all went to Switzerland (and other places in Europe via UK and LA) in 2005 - they had a tennis match with Corina and interviewed an 8 year old Tennis Protege (and her parents) called Belinda Bencic - that was 7 years ago and that was also the last time I saw Don and Ernie.

Corina starts off the thread about the big match and how big the news was in Switzerland - and then starts reminising about the Don, Ernie, Marcus match 2005 - and out of the blue - Ernie joins in the conversation - with the news.... yes that was great... btw I'm in London next week - do you want to meet for Tea?

Thank you Mark Zuckerman for your little life-changing website!

Monday - was a great day - Thank you Emily and Nicky for picking up Lucas, and thank you Emily for Sleeping Over - Lucas had a lovely time, a really lovely time!

Ernie - thank you for making time to see us, and for the opportunities!!! - have a great trip - and hope to see you again soon.

Don, Betsy, Dayna, Mercedes, Veronika, and all my European friends.... watch out - Fate is dealing me some lovely cards.

Love and best wishes to All
