We turned an age older last week. Ever since we became friends, we always celebrate birthdays together. There were also graduation and weddings, but those didnt happen every year hehe.
When i see her growing up and adventuring through life at sometimes a slow, sometimes a very fast pace, i also see a reflection of myself at times. She is really my competitor, my motivator, and most importantly my very very true friend who's got the best shoulder to cry on. I have been through the wheels of life with her: enduring lawschool, building a family, shifting careers, finding defining moments in life...the list just goes on.
Sometimes daily activities and commitments does not permit us to share what we had last time. But it's like they say in the movies, our love/friendship is like the wind, i can't see it, i can sure feel it.
In simple language, we are sort of made up of each other; cos she is so like me, and i am so like her. We had the past with us, and i am confident we will hold the future happily together. Every year.
Happy Birthday old friend, may all your dreams come true! (and mine, hehe)
