Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
- The Carpenters
My dear friend April left for York to study social work on 8th October! Organising her farewell and probably the only farewell I have organised stirred a emotions of frustration when things didnt work out right (cuz I wanted her to have a perfect farewell, though I wonder what a perfect farewell is like), happiness that she was going to pursue something she's always desired, sad that there will be timezones, seas, countries dividing us (gosh that doesnt sound right), but most of all regretful that I didnt spend so much time with her when I should have. I was so engulfed by my new surroundings that I remained oblivious of my dear friend. I tried to look out for a listening ear in medicine, someone I could connect with when God always reminded me to look no further. Ever since JC, April has been a dear friend to me. But sometimes we all take the things most precious to us for granted (atleast that's what I did). But once she left, in hope to rectify this mistake, I kept in touch, soon to realise that it is not so difficult after all to build on one's friendship irrespective of the place, circumstances, or the time zone!
So here I am now, 2 days more to go before I meet her again. I am glad Ill be able to catch up with her even for a little while, que sara sara, what will be will be....
let your heart out.
