Old Friends

You've heard of the Gilmore girls, but there was also a less known duo a long time ago. They were the Griffin girls, not connected by name but, by the years of their youth spent in the same housing project. Once upon a time they were two little girls sharing all of the experiences that life offered them or threw at them. Their time spent together was a blending of joy,laughter, goodhearted giggles, back street educations,poor girl wanna be dreams, neighborhood dramas, grief, secret clubs, and forever friendships. The saga of the Griffin Girls happened many years ago in a place long since fallen. The only testimony to the girl's existence are the heart-strings tied to each other in a sometimes whimsical, sometimes painful childhood. The Griffin girls grew up and lived their lives in different ways. Occasionally, their paths would cross, but it was only for an instant. Then one day they met once again in a glorious garden and their friendship was reborn. The heartstrings were just as strong as the once they were. The joy they had shared many years prior was revisited and their laughter was musical. There were a few tears, as if we had come home from a long and wearisome journey, that gave witness to a treasured friendship. Meeting up with an old friend is somehow magical.
