Blast from the past

It's amazing seeing old friends, classmates and relatives after losing contact with them for such a long time. It's weird because not only does that person's looks change their whole persona also changed. I remember seeing my best friend after 10 long years, she was completely a different person from what I could remember. When I was in first year of High School I moved overseas and have not visited my homeland for about a decade. I lost contact with all my school friends, childhood friends and relatives. I guess I was young back then and didn't really think about keeping in touch. When I met up with my best friend after all those time I found myself struggling to communicate with her, not because of language barrier but more on her outlook in life. Her thoughts and outlook in life is completely different from mine. I found her thoughts a bit narrow minded and very caught up with her own little world. I was very surprised that she was not thinking of moving overseas. Most people from my homeland wants to get out of the country yet she has no desire to do so. In contrast I am thinking of conquering the world, finishing my degree at University, travelling the world, have the cake and eat it too. It is sad to say that ever since we have not got back to being friends like we were in the past.
