A student in one of the classes I was in charge informed me that they would hold a reunion for the first time in 20 years on July 16,when it is a long way off. Anyway,I look forward to seeing my old students, who will already be about 40 years old.
A class reunion is a good occasion for the former classmates and the teacher to know how each one of them has led his/her life so far since their graduation. And it is, basically, for the classmates themselves, not for the teacher. They can enjoy the warm atmosphere, because there are no boundaries, or no barriers, and, of course, no conflicts of interest or no pecking order among them.
I, myself, went to Narugo, Miyagi prefecture, last September to attend my own class reunion. At that time, 22 old classmates attended including 11 men and 11 women. We were already 73 or 74 years old. I saw some of them for the first time after our graduation from junior high school 59 years ago. I was very happy because all of them were so nice and kind to each other.
