~:[CH14 - Day 115]:~ Together, We Eat
After practice, we headed to go eat. It was nice to be able to not worry about time, as spring break came to a close. While we didn't get everyone to join us, it was still great to get together for the last time during the regular season, as soon league finals will be approaching. I think eating together is one of the things that has truly connected our ohana. While it's something simple, it definitely is a binding force that allows the team to get to know each other beyond just the competitive field. While cross country and track allow that more often since we are at the meets for some time, it still is different. When alumni come back to visit, they reminisce about the times that we went out to eat. Even with my friends, our discussions often circle back to our meals that we had together. I guess the same goes for any organization, friends, and family. When I was in college, our outings centered around going out to eat. When you are planning to hang out with family and friends, it's the same. Is food the binding force that brings people together? Whether it is or not, make an effort to spend time together, get to know each other, and celebrate the moments you have together.
