Reunion

Tonight marks reunion day. The band is back together, albeit temporarily. Naturally, I feel incredibly excited. But also nervous. I shouldn’t be. It is literally my immediate family. Yet, there is always a certain desire to do a big-time reunion justice. Make it perfect. Savour the moment. It never quite turns out that way though. Your hug might be slightly more awkward than intended. Surprise timing doesn’t quite work out. Regular order gets quickly re-established.

That moment is amazing, but the people are what make it special; the reason it exists in the first place. As long as they get here in one piece—that’s a perfect reunion enough.
