Guess which one is me?

One of these little boys raising a toast is me, the other one is my kindergarten buddy, Jason. Oddly enough, after not talking to one another since kindergarten. We met up again in Taichung City, Taiwan. He was an English teacher living in Taiwan just like I was. We bumped into each other in Chinese class of all places. I am amazed at what a small world it is sometimes. Jason and I lived a few doors down the street from each other on Richmond Drive in Muncie Indiana. Ball State University was in our backyards, and we were best friends. When my family moved that summer, we kept in touch with a couple letters, as we started first grade, but never talked after that. To think that he moved to Korea for a year, then moved to Taiwan... just like I did. And we met after living in the same city for a couple years and never knowing the other was there. We have the modern version of this picture, where we're all growns up and holding beers.

• One of the best stories of my life.

Cheers Jason.
