It's hard to imagine it's been nearly two decades since graduating from high school. Harder still is the fact we were once lean and thin. Even harder to imagine is the fact that we have all, like good wine, aged.
Classmates we once tolerated or didn't get along with now become likeable people. We are now able to reminisce and laugh about old times. The awkwardness dissolves when you find out you went through the same gawky stage called high school. We all wanted the same basic thing, to be accepted. Now that years have passed, when we finally have someone who we can say "do you remember when...?", we find out that acceptance is easier when shared experiences turn into memories. And even when you're catching up on what has been happening recently the past finds its way back into the present and laughter ensues.
The imagery fits, wine grows better with time as do people. Well, some people. Okay let's be generous and say most people.
