People move and we lose track of them as the years pass by, but not anymore. Now we find those who were lost from our lives. I have made a lot of re connections over the last couple of years through Face Book, but I have had just as many sad moments when I find out someone is sick, dying or passed away already. There have been quite a few of those lately and I am starting to feel a little old. <\/p>\n<p>Two days ago and old friend who was part of a group of friends I used to hang out with had a massive stroke. He is only forty nine years old. He was always one of the older members of our group but he isn&#8217;t old by any stretch of the word. I am worried for his recovery right now, as he cannot say any other word but the word no and cannot move the right side of his body. It is very sad for his daughter who is having to deal with her father in this condition at such a young age. I hope and pray for his speedy recovery. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Social networks can be a lot of fun and re connect people who have seemingly disappeared from your life.
