Girls Gone Wiles

Have you ever wondered about the lives of your college friends? Maybe you are curious if they have had parallel lives with yours? This weekend I had the opportunity to find out about my four college roommates. This is what I discovered:

• All of us are in long term relationships—20 plus years
• All of us have careers
• All are strong and independent women who have an ability to connect with each other each time we meet
• One was a manager of over 1200 people in a country outside the United States and another found fame in country music
• Three live in states bordering the one where we went to college
• One has been to every state and one has been to all but two states
• Between the five of us we have visited every continent except Australia
• Two live on the land where their parents raised them
• Three of the five have no children
• Between us, we own 14 different pieces of property
• Three of us are self-employed
• Each of us is very creative
• We’ve enjoyed being with each other for the entire weekend without ever leaving the house 

Today’s gift was to give a photo book that I made to my four roommates to reminisce about the good times. Connected for life, we have grown to our fifties from teenagers launched by the street we lived on in college—Wiles Street.

In Giving,
