Photos and memories

I was putting old photos to an album and I saw this one picture that always makes me smile. I like the feeling, when I look in a picture and suddenly after 5 minutes I realize that I've been wondering about the times when the picture was taken. The picture of today, was a picture of me, my sister and my best friend in front of our house, taken in the summer of 1999. I stared at the photo a long time and I thought about that great friend who was sitting there right next to me in that photo, still someone really important. We were in pre-school in 1999 and after it we went to different schools and didn't see in 7 years. Is it just a coincidence that we met after 7 years and became good friends again? I don't think so.
