Social Politics, High School Style

Photograph: View from Old Cataracts terrace, Aswan, 2005-09-30, © Nick Varacalli. Had lunch with Dina and a good friend that we don’t see enough because he’s out of town. But I digress already.

We got to talking about friendships and social politics. I said that over the last decade as I’ve grown into adulthood, I’ve learned that high-school politics lasts well past high school. Dina noted that it’s likened to high-school social politics because that’s just when it starts.

Epiphany!

Somehow that caused a lot of things to fall into place. It’s not as if the high-school interactions are something that happen and are left behind or that we outgrow. We grow into it because it’s a part of being social beings.

I’m really dense at times.
