A Close Yet Distant Friend
Yesterday, I met up with a close yet distant best friend from my secondary school after 2 years.And over these years, we were both in the same situation - just unknown to each other. (I am not going into details with that because it can be quite personal)
As I was sitting down in Kenny Rogers (All four of us (my best friends from secondary school)have a tradition to go to Kenny Rogers everytime we meet), I was looking at my best friend of 8 years - the second of the three who became close to me. I couldn't believe the pain she went through for the past 2 years and most of all, how she went through it all on HER OWN! I'm serious she went through it all on her own. No one to guide her and everything except for her boyfriend who had been with her throughout the entire time.
I saw this woman, as she depicted her tattered life, as a source of hope to me personally. I could see how much she has learnt and grown through the hardships she had been facing and I don't think any 20 year old would be strong enough to stand tall through the crap she had been. The fact that she did not approach me or anyone of her close friends, does not show that she didn't wanted to share her sorrow on her own but it showed to me that she wanted to walk through it on her own and solve things without seeking or depending on others - that I found totally admirable and that many should have...
The first to be married in the circle of my close friends, the twinkles in her eyes definitely show that she is happy and is glowing amazingly. Her meeting with fate has definitely left her astounded and like her, I, too am dumbfounded by the way God has put things for her. I pray that soon she will receive the gift of marriage through God's loving creations.
For me, personally...Marriage - has been a forbidden word to me. But its strange how God has introduced people in my life to personally witness the wonders of marriage or to make me change my mind. I must say that my thoughts of marriage have actually been becoming positive lately. Although working in a place that largely deals with tear wrenching stories of divorce that just rips your heart apart as well as to induce a sense of wanting to commit murder, I am thankful that I am able to drawn the line in my personal life. In fact, all these weaknesses of other people and the numerous failed marriages has given me a strength to work, if any my marriage out - like a challenge that I'm imposing myself into.
No, I'm not hinting that I am going to be married. I'm not! Even if I am, not NOW! siau! But I realized that no matter how much a marriage could scare someone away, it's a long term commitment that everyone would want to work out. What differs is the extent that each individual is able and willing to go to work it out.
Marriage scared me and still does. But just because I chose to induce a fear in myself does not mean that I am not going to take this challenge up.
Somehow, suddenly, I too, *whispers* wish to get married if things work out right... Beneath me there are desires to commit my life to someone who is equally willing to commit his life to me. Marriage is an one way ticket with a life time partner to Happiness and that alone should be its motive and nothing else.
Although I am not completely convinced, he is completely and overly convinced that its HER! for HIM!... For I shall sit, let Time tell its tales of true love and start believing that...
I finally found someone, who knocks me off my feet;
I finally found the one who makes me feel complete...
It started over coffee, we started out as friends;
It's funny how from simple things; the best things begin...
This time is different;
la la la la
It's all because of you!..
It's better than it's ever been;
Cuz we can talk it through;
My favorite line was "Can I call you sometime?";
It's all you had to say...
To take my breath away...
This is it!
Oh, I finally found someone; Someone to share my life;
I finally found the one - to be with every night;
Cause whatever I do
It's just got to be you!
My life has just begun, I finally found someone...
Did I keep you waiting?
I didn't mind
I apologize
Baby, that's fine
I would wait forever
Just to know you were mine;
Ya Know - I love your hair...
Are you sure it looks right?
I love what you wear...
Isn't it too tight?
You're exceptional!
I can't wait for the rest of my life...
Oh This Is It!
I finally found someone; Someone to share my life,
I finally found the one; to be with every night...
Cause whatever I do
It's just got to be you
My life has just begun; I finally found someone...
And whatever I do.
It's just got to be you!
My life has just begun...
I finally found someone...

"Some
people plant in the spring,
And
leave in the summer.
If
you're signed up for a season, see it through.
You
don't have to stay forever,
but at
least stay until you see it through."
