Recently, something interesting happened to me. I used to have a close friend from the Kyusyu area. I met her in collage and even after graduation, we sometimes visited each other. However, due to my husband's job, I had to move from one place to other places many times and lost her address. At that time, we didn't exchange e-mail addresses, so I had no way to contact her. Since then, I sometimes thought about her. I really wanted to contact her, but I had no way to find her and almost gave up hope.

A few days ago, my mom called to tell me she received a postcard for me. The sender was looking for my address where I current live. It was from my other friend, who I haven't contacted for a long time either. I immediately emailed this friend and asked if she had any information about my friend from Kyusyu. Fortunately, she knew her e-mail address. Now, I've reconnected with two of my old friends. We are planning to meet somewhere some time soon. I will see them for the first time nearly for thirty years.

This is fascinating because I nearly lost in touch with both friends, but something that we can't control worked in our favor, and I could contact them. It feels like a kind of miracle.
