Are you still friends with any of your childhood friends?

I think about this meme a lot.

I was blessed to grow up with a great group of siblings and kids who were tied together because we were Mormon growing up in New Orleans in the 80s-00s. There weren’t many of us that fit that description at the time, and our parents had us hang out together (wether we wanted to or not) so we could watch out for each other. We would go to parties together. Football games. School events. It was great.

Over time some guys rolled off, and we never heard from them, but today those of us who remain (about 10 of us) have a great group chat. We live in 4 different states, but it feels like we haven’t changed or moved apart.

That is one of the best memes I've ever seen......we had a group of neighborhood kids (about 7-8 of us) that played baseball, football, basketball, all kinds of other games and stuff....I lost touch with most of them except 1, grew up 3 doors down, known him since I was 3.....we text almost daily....lived together off and on in our 20's.....in LA and MD.....still hang out at least 3 times a year.....usually at his beach house in Rehoboth....friends with 2 of them on FB.....
