Leaving on a jetplane

 This post came abit late, my dear ah ngia is already quite settled in UK, but allow me to just post up something that I did want to post up.

The last minute flurry

 

Jason’s weird camera face

Leaving is always difficult.
It’s not about the amout of time we won’t see one another, but it’s that moment of truth that someone close is really leaving.

As friends, amidst the tearful goodbyes,
We become the parents, and imagine how they might be feeling; to let your child go from your protective arms, to fend herself in the world without you beside her;

We become the one leaving, imagine how it’s like to leave your loved ones and face an entire new world alone;

As friends, we tear for her leaving, for the fear; the apprehension; the loneliness that finally faces her right in the eye;
for the parents and family;
for that moment of truth.
