Wishes in the shower of Meteors and Stars

Dear blog,

It has been a while since I wrote anything as long as what I m about to write now here.

Early this morning, there was a meteor shower. The sky was beautiful. It was so clear. I went out with a few friends to watch the shower. It was the first time I had actually seen such a phenomena. At once when I knew of the event, my mind stated to think about you. I sent you a text, asking you out to experience this phenomena together. I waited for your reply, but it didnt came. "She must be sleeping" I thought to myself. Then I saw for the first time, a meteor that dropped from the sky. At that instant, I made a wish. A wish for you. Soon after, another meteor fell from the sky. This time i made a wish for my other friends. A few other meteors were falling then. One of the was the biggest I saw out of the 70+ that I witnessed that night. On that very same meteor, I made another wish for you. I'd really hope that those wishes I made for you would come true. The night was really worth while. It was magnificent, but would have been perfect with you around.

Today, I took a walk to the lake from my place. It was quite troublesome with my left knee giving me problems. Slowly, I walked to the end of the lake. I sat there for a moment, taking a deep breath and memories of you just flooded my mind. Tears flow out of my eyes. I was sad, I was feeling down, I was lost. but little did I know, it was all because I was really missing you. I can't deny the fact that you were always on my mind, and you took apart of me with you, you were always the one who made my day. Just a smile from you would make a town light up. But now I m all alone. I went back to the spot where we held each other hands for the first time, the smile you wore on your face.

As I was alone, still thinking about you, an elderly couple walked by, hand in hand. "What a lovely and sweet old couple" I said to myself. They were roughly about in their late 50s'. They went on to stop at the platform in front of me. They then gaze at the lake and the skies, still holding each other hands. I was listening to Yiruma's "Kiss The Rain". What perfect timing I thought to myself. I've always wondered to myself, if I ever had the chance to do so with you anymore. Their lips were moving; they were talking about something. I wondered if they were talking about their past. How they met each other, how they came to the same lake before this, and how much they have grown older; perhaps. I then began to realize, as much as the elderly couple would like to spend their time together, age has caught up to them. It is a fact they could never change. But still, they are reliving their past, as if it happened just yesterday. I slowly began to learn that there are somethings in life that we have to learn to accept.

Life isnt always fair isnt it. Fairness is only something so vague, there is no definite meaning for it. It all leads to how we look at things. I doubt you would even be reading this. But if you do, just so you know, you're still in my heart and I m still waiting for you.

Life goes on bro, wipe the tears, tomorrow is another brand new day. You are right, fair or not, depends how you look at it. When we are happy, we thank god that how lucky we are. When we are sad, we blame this blame that, that's human nature. Karma, faith, fate, what do you believe? Just cheerish what you currently have bro, cheers ^^
