Tis better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.

Days into the new year, we found ourselves in a tricky situation. I was adamant on my decision to live without. But he convinced me otherwise. His love and strength became the source of my courage to face whatever trials and fiery condemnation I knew we would soon face. Made in Japan, I called it. And I grew to love this little thing we had. It was ours. Him and I. I and him. Until it was no more. And now my heart aches with the loss of it. So tell me, is it truly better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all? 

I’ll see the light. Someday. Maybe.

Spending some alone time - thinking. I thought I had a bade a friendship farewell some years ago. But as he resurfaced through a mutual friend, I guess I have not completely let go. I guess a part of me still clings on to that sweet boy I once knew in highschool - not in a romantic fashion. A part of me aches and longs for the return of that innocence. But the reality is, it's been 9 years since and not a pip from him despite my attempts to mend. And thus one can only come to the conclusion that it is a one sided affair. Several days ago.. when I found out we were in the same city, I toyed with the idea of a reunion. What would happen out if we ran into each other on the street. Or if I accepted our mutual friend's invitation to a dinner appointment that he was going to be at. I weighed the pros and cons. Pros being our friendship would pick up from where we left off 9 years ago. Cons being .. my pride, my heart .. would likely not take well to another rejection. Alas, I went on flight mode and declined the invitation.

Goodbye, old friend. It is inevitable that I still think of you from time to time. I pray I soon forget the guilt I carry when I think of you.

My take outs are getting prepped so I thought I'd drop in while waiting on them. Today is ME day. Sorta. Fed myself my favourite food and got a massage appointment to look forward to later this afternoon. And! I am taking the little Onglets out to the airport. So yay me.

To be updated. Later. Hopefully.

We need to let go. Become content. Thankful. Rid ourselves of comparison.

“I got divorced when I was sixty-four. We had a good run. We were married for 36 years. We’re not enemies. We just outgrew each other. When the kids were in the house, all our focus was on them. But after they left, there just wasn’t any reason to keep doing it. We were just living our own lives—together. Neither of us was all that interested in changing. So what’s the point in staying together? If you talk to most people my age, and they’re really being honest, they’ll tell you that they’re dissatisfied with their partner. But then they’ll shrug their shoulders and say: ‘Where else am I going to go?’ Because most people can’t stand to be alone. My ex-wife and I never had that problem.”
