Reunion

 The term comes from the Latin root ‘unus’ or ‘one’ and the ‘again’ prefix re-, so reunion means to ‘make as one again.’

 

Since a union is a state of togetherness, a reunion is when people get back together after some sort of separation. At high school and college reunions, people see friends they haven’t seen for years.

 

Efforts for a reunion start with a remembrance of the joyful times with the person. The desire to relive and recreate those memories, leads us to actions to search and find whereabouts of the ones we have lost touch with.

 

Interestingly, reunions are about connecting with times when motives were not materialistic. It is about times when joys were in simple things and success included little achievements and new discoveries. It is about times when we were children and so were most around us.

 

We must strive to create reunions with the child like attitudes and approaches that made us happy so easily. We must reconnect with simple joys and eager excitements. We must reunite and reclaim the child in us.

 

Recreate the good times and relive happiness again

Reunite the child within with the friendship domain!
