Signs and rules
I am ready to put a full day on foot. Although the morning is mild, I watch the downshifting of light and bask in the reflected light from the corner of the bedroom. This seems even truer of the cavernous dream-like vacation but I only hope that I would not wake up groggily.
That is one way of putting it. Much as how I feel tremendous relief at the new turn of events, there are unpredictable moments where I see a blank wall or a roadblock.
I would prefer if I have had these written on flowered notepaper but here goes.
Dear lovely companions,
I recalled I said this: I will make the world acknowledge my friends a charmer. Now I would name all of you, who includes everyone I know of even if it's a hi and bye affair, my continual solace. We grew and we are fine adults now. Ok I don't like the word adults but face it, I'm turning twenty. Often, we find our lives change with time but a person could get used to it. I had been so lucky. We have to admit there were times when we lost our nerves and stood on slanting floors. We work on the assurance and cast light on them. Then we set out again, by trains or some of us by boats but however we traveled, we all know we would turn up at the other end but by different roads.
I surrender to the beauty, the humour, the light-heartedness and the sweetness of our friendships. I had the
time of my lives. You, my companions, remind me of something I once knew but couldn't remember during setbacks. You amused me and reassured me of how I used to carve and not paste a smile on my face.Although secretly of course I believe we have to slip away at times like this but promise you do not vanish forever and leave clues about the destination
and the route you might go.
