About Past

About Past...

Past is a myth, a sweet myth. It is a great feeling that sometimes this myth can unfold right in front of you, to remind you that part of your life is still retrenched in your heart, forever and always.

I believe there is nothing in the world more fabulous than being missed, being waited, and being marked as "special". I am fortunate to find such a friend.

Not "find". I know my friend has always been there for me--we've known each other for eleven years. (Good age, we're about to be adults) Sharing some anecdotes after five years may be the most heartwarming way of remembering our past, making it alive, and reliving it again. We all need the time and the mood to reminisce. It is therapeutic.

About memories...

I have half a piece. You have half a piece. Together we make it a whole.

Maybe I remember more about you, because I do not need to sift through my mind to think of details about you. They are lying peacefully in my memory. But I wish you remember more. You indeed.

It is lucky to have a friend sharing your past, and cherishing that shared part. People can be put into different worlds as time passes by, but that mutual memory links the world, so my "world" is not so different from your "world", and their "world".

About weather...

Believe that we are "special" enough to MAKE the day for others. I MAKE rain, and I MAKE sunshine (today's sunshine:)

Believe that we can always find reasons to be happy in any conditions we live in----just small things can bring out sunshine.

Believe that we have the "cheek" to let the cloud be blown away.

About time...

Keep counting, because we are all growing.

At different sections we meet different people, and we show them our different "selves" (since they are different). Never be scared by the time. It indeed gives you a crust like that on the refrigereated cake, but time is a beautiful thing if you just "tickle" it and it "giggles" for you.

Things cannot be reversed, so always be contented that they happened as they did, and be sorry if you have any inclination to condemn your past.

And get nervous~especially when time rewinds and we see people in our past----VERY past. It is the most beautiful evidence that we still care about them, a lot.

To end...

What a great past I have!

When I was still the tiny girl in the denim trousers, helpless and fluttered I believe, and the game "three-letter-word" was going on and I was "rescued" by my good friend.

When I was still the naive girl I was trapped in the riddle----"can neither go up nor down". Isn't it "卡"?

When the SARS broke out, I was on a mission with others to make collages and encourage the public to combat the disease by giving out leaflets on the streets. I went through that special training saying "保镖" ten times on end (try it! you'll get your tongue twisted!) And I was one of the consultants; my good friend was the other:)

When my first graduation drew near, ways began to separate, once and for ever. We were never on the same track again, but we have since then been making changes, big ones and small ones, to our lives.

When after five years, we talk about our past again. It sounds sentimental, but we are all "maturally sentimental", so it sounds fine.

About future...

We will be adults, soon. I expect it as much as my friend does.

We will still be in two worlds, but we are going to enjoy a higher degree of freedom that age grants us.

We will become lifelong pals:)

And hopefully we will attend each other's weddings:)

So there is a lot to be looked forward to.

Let's get nervous soon;P
