Pictures from an old friend

Posted by Paige on Sep 2, 2010 in Friends, Memories

Once in a while, I received notes from friends I befriended when I backpacked a few years back.

I received with great delight, an email from a friend whom I have not thought of for some time. He was a great host when I was visiting Inner Mongolia. I can still remember how his presentation of traditional Mongolian music filled the living room of the hostel. Strangers became friends in an instant. How magical music can be.

This time round, he sent me images which ignited my yearning for the vast grassland, the boundary-free horse riding….

Friends…Happy Friendship day!

Posted by Paige on Feb 14, 2009 in Friends

One of my close friends had been depressed for months over her relationship. A few of us met up in a cozy cafe and she confided in us. As of any breakups, it pained to hear one. As she struggled with her decisions, all of us chipped in our opinions and suggestions. We all had so many different interpretations, possibilities, advice, but all of us have only one motive…we want her to be happy again.

We are a bunch of mates from secondary school. Due to our erratic schedules, it has been years since all of us got together as a group. And fortunately, nothing has changed. As we exited from the roles we play in our daily lives, we come together again, as 15 year-old, no inhibitions, no embarrassments, only heart to heart conversations. That’s what I call friends.

They are there to give you that extra push when you want to go further. They are the pillars if you need some backing to stand strong. I am fortunate because I have a few that are very dear to me. And sorry if there are times I could not contain my temper and had hurt u guys unintentionally. Thank you for the wonderful memories… so pure and true.
