新卒の同期と会うために金曜午後は休みをとって京都へ。
同期の1人が割烹料理屋の大将をやっており、そのお店に。
うんと久しぶりの人、久しぶりの人、ちょっと久しぶりの人、いろんな人がいたけど、楽しく話ができて、社会人になってからの友人だけど、まだ学生に毛が生えた頃からの知り合いっておもしろいなと改めて思いました。
そして今日は大学のときからの友人と、その友人(同級生)を紹介してもらい、不動産のことを教えてもらいました。
いろいろ教えてもらって本当に助かった。
全然知り合いじゃなかったんだけど、実はめちゃ近所に住んでて、三男の小学校の同級生だった。
世間は狭い。
今年は昔の友達つながりを深めることが多くてうれしい。
新たな友達ももちろんできてるし、それも本当に楽しいけど、昔からの友達はまた違ったつながりの強さを感じます。
I went to Kyoto to see some of my colleagues when I was a new graduate at the first company on Friday.
One of them is an owner and chef of his Japanese restaurant there and we visited it.
I enjoyed dinner with them even though some of them were long-time no-sees.
I always especially feel familiar with those whom I brace friends with at a young age.
My best friend introduced his friend today and he taught me real estate.
It was very helpful for me.
I had never known him but he lives close to my house and his son was in the same grade as my youngest son at the same school.
It's a small world.
I was glad to deepen my connections with my old friends.
I am also happy to make new friends but I feel a different strength in my connections with them.
