...friendships and being permanent

For quite sometime now, a company that shall be nameless have been sending pinoys to the city of Chicago for work. I’ve gotten to know many of them. I’ve made meaningful friendships. Today, I had to see a few of them go. I had gotten to be very close to them. Every single time my friends leave, it’s a difficult time for me. Its definitely hard being left alone. For them, this is a working vacation. They get to go home to their loved ones. For me, without Leng, I’m left with an empty feeling in my stomach. I’m left to a lonely, pathetic existence. I know our path’s will cross again. I just wish we all lived in the same city. It’s hard being permanent. But, oh well, that’s life.

To my friends who just left – I raise my beer to you – may you be happy with whatever life hands to you. We’ll see each other again…..hopefully sooner rather than later. ….til next time.
