moments of colours

It’s a fun, fun Friday!!

My best friend was here this afternoon! We haven’t seen each other for almost a year. But we manage to keep in touch through sms. She has been married for ten years now, with two kids. We have known each other since our elementary years because we lived on the same street and our moms work at the same school. But we got to know each other better when we got to work together 16 years back.

I miss the times when we would travel together on Saturdays to study for our masteral degree. Besides working together to pass our subjects, it was a time that we got to share more of our views about life, our dreams, boys, etc…, chanting, “God is good. God is great. God provides ALL THE TIME!!” whenever we would be catching up for the last trip of the bus to go back home.  So many memories, so much adventures and misadventures… =) …That’s why whenever we would have a chance to catch up with each other, a few minutes wouldn’t be enough. We spent the afternoon talking about each other’s stories, especially about her worklife, her hubby and her two boys until it was dark. If not for the need to really go home to her brood, our conversation would have continued.

I’m blessed to have a friend like her, through thick and thin, through bad hair days and good ones. She is there always whenever I need a hand, an ear or a hanky. She’s a wonderwoman with a knack for being cool under pressure and very funny with her antics. She has taught me a lot of stuff with the stories she shared. I got to know more about myself too whenever she gives me feedback about how I handled situations at hand. Growing and learning together… What a gem in a million!!!

Whenever you would have a chance to have a friend like that, treasure them dearly. For you’ll have one of the greatest treasures this life has to offer! Hurray for best friends!!! =)
