Each Other

Today I went out to lunch with my classmates. We sat around, had a few laughs, told some stories and found out things that we never knew. It get me thinking.... How well do we really know each other?

How much do we want to know about each other? We've been together since December and we're still figuring each other out.

All the stories we told were us in high school. What we did at prom and how long graduation really took. I found out something about my classmates who is from Saudi Arabia. He was voted on their prom court and instead of crowing a king and queen they give crowns to every nominee.

Another girl is half Korean and she took us to a little restaurant that serves Korean food. She told us about the sides we got and what they were used for, even tricking us into eating SEAWEED. We never knew she could speak it and watched as she had a full conversation with the waitress.

Why do we open up to people we trust? We know they won't judge us and we feel safe. But is there another reason?

If anything this luncheon was a true eye opener. We know understand each other fully.

I suggest you try it with a group of friends or co-workers. But it has to be a sit down restaurant.

And it doesn't hurt if there is soft piano music in the background.

And that you like the people.
