Some words on the farewell
It seems that even after Cindi left, I didn’t say much. I believe it is the mutual understanding that bounds us. Silence sometimes means more than words. I guess you and even the rest can understand. While we were departing on the airport, I was actually happy that you could continue to pursue your dreams. But having read your notes the night before, I do have a little bit to share.
I can imagine the happiness yet the struggles in becoming an “adult”. Lam said on her xanga that while we departed in CB that night, we headed for different directions which could indeed form a triangle. To me, it was such a beautiful scene! We were not leaving one another but heading for our own dreams in life! What could make one feel even grateful while he/ she has dreams to chase.
While seeing you leave at the airport today, I did not have a drop of tear, but I did have a sign of emotion inside my mind. It was not exactly sadness. But in the moment of saying goodbye, I noted the changes in our lives and all of sudden, I felt a little bit sorrow (my tears are welling in typing this out,sob…). In fact I wanted to give you a hug, my buddy!
Anyway, I have a number of things to remind you guys, which includes all the Cheung Chow trip people and Fei Lam:
1, we have a promise to eat seafood once again in Cheung Chow
2, we need to gather again for playing Mahjong in Liu Wun’s house
3, we need to have a sharing night again like what we had in CB that night.
4, and much more as you can imagine!
Apart from all these reminders, I have some wishes as well. I really hope you guys, not just Cindi but the rest could find your beloved ones as soon as possible. I am desperately looking forward to seeing all of your sweethearts. Indeed I somehow feel that maybe when we have the chance to gather again with all being present, some of you would have got married or even have children. The imagination seems a little bit too far, but who knows?! Maybe a year or two later I’ll receive a phone call from Cindi telling me that she has got married! This is totally and very possible! I am prepared to hear these sorts of good news!! Just don’t let me down!!
Btw, I enjoyed the CB night and so as the airport trip today so much!
