It was my best friend's wedding last night and I'm very very happy and thrilled for her;I remembered 10 years ago when we would spend hours on the phone ,abusing our free Verizon mobile-to-mobile minutes,listening to each other's mumble's,breathings and endless complains about almost everything and giving each other a naive but the best possible advise.Perhaps I don't need to mention this but at times we were negligent of each other's presence on that side of the line and would not give each other a chance to talk,rather starting conversations and switching topics as our sense of urgency and ego was pleased-Ok,ok more like me than her,but we simply wanted to have somebody in our unbearable still and silent life to share our ordinary and thought-provoking moments. Above all, we were each other's keepers.She probably knows about mylife events and details more than anybody else on this planet and so do I. It's nostalgic but we are both living hectic lives now and hardly find the time to catch up with the routines. It makes me very emotional and I know I'm being selfish. Last night, while I was holding up the cloth and and grinding the sugar cane before they exchange their vows, it suddenly hit me that she is no longer single and we are no longer in that era and I'm no longer a teenager. I myself am soon to be married.Part of me didn't wanna let that era fade away,but I hope our dreams, motivations, courage and advetures still be the same and never cease being a curious kid. I hope a few years from now, and many years from now we still take the time to share our life's moments together and be part of each others' laughter and if we have to ,our sadnesses.

And so a new chapter began in my life yesterday,seeing my darling girlfriend getting married to a wonderful man in a gorgeous gown,looking all stunning and seeing her growing out of a single girl from our tails of sisterhood and leaping into a life of a married woman;acceptong the life's turn overs and changes as a necessity to evolve to complete human beings even if we have to grow out from teenage years and assume the life of an adult. In fact we have been adults, long before we dare to acknowledge it;My dear Rosha,thank you for being a blessing and always being an inspiring figure in my life.
