Few weeks ago, I was fitting my bridesmaid dress on the same day my good friend – the bride also fitting her gown.
Upon seeing her wearing the gown.
I felt something strong in my heart that somehow tells me goodbye.
It was like standing on a doorstep while your friend goes through the door of an infinite distance to a different world never to be seen again.
Putting the dramatic imagination aside,
I guess it’s just me witnessing someone close moving to the next big phase of life.
The day of the bridal shower,
I felt it again.
That sad unspoken goodbye
A goodbye that tells me
well, there are some things that are probably going to be different from now on. (obviously)
different priorities that puts more focus on their own family
and the families that bind these two.
A change in the circle of people
A change in activities that used to be easier to agree upon
It made me think what my next focus in life would be
Most of these thoughts probably come from how my mom has turned out when she entered married life.
She lost touch with her friends and became so busy with raising the family.
Most of her friends now are also moms she met during our schooling years.
Nevertheless
Congratulations Johan and Joy
