This is Christmas















Christmas, has snuck up. It didn't seem too long that we were in Hong Kong, walking down the mid-level escalators everyday. A trip I will never forget, because on hindsight, my instincts were right, and on hindsight it still hurts.

Eating krispy kreme, drinking toffee nut latte, trying hard to enjoy the trip.

This is Christmas again. But spent differently, with different people, first time since 2005. An older me, a more resolved me is spending this Christmas eve thinking about 2008, and 2009. I did the things I said I would. I found my ways and knocked on doors. I will pray now that 2009 will be kind to me. I will learn to love differently in 2009, and not ask for more. I will free myself of hurt and pain, and not be slaved to confusion or jealousy. I will be a pillar for people to depend on, and a shoulder for friends to lean on. I can see the goals to focus on. This is a Christmas unlike the last, it will not bring more pain, but rejuvenation.

Perhaps "never" is like "forever", my dear friend. Maybe you can forget the hurt one day? But not the lessons learnt, hopefully.
I'm proud that you did the things you said you would, few people can say that. And it certainly takes much clarity and courage to set the goals you have for yourself.
I'll be journeying through 2009 with you, and I'm glad you'll be a willing and reassuring shoulder for me to lean on. *hug*
