dear friend,

u'll never know how i was looking forward to being w/ u again. i really miss our residency days - our marathon walks from the hospital to lerma on our way home, our more than Php 20 worth of merienda, our search for comfort rooms and even the tongue-lashing we got from HB (remember? i don't think i ever got to say i'm sorry for that). i know i'm not an easy person to be with. i will forever be grateful to you during the time when i was "hopelessly in love", when everybody around me was saying i shouldn't stoop to that level, when nobody believed that i can really find happiness that way, you never once judged me nor discouraged me; you were just there to support me and had been happy for me because you knew i was happy.

i always feel light-hearted everytime i talk to you. you're always so broad-minded, always seeing the good in everyone, you give me a wider perspective on things that never fails to lift the weight i have on my shoulders. i know we don't talk that much anymore and i admit that sometimes it makes me sad but i understand that u have a different priority now. i just hope that you can find more time to be by yourself and that you won't forget your friends.

if what you predicted would come true, i know that one of the reasons that would make me think twice would be knowing that i would be leaving behind friends like you. but be rest assured that wherever i go, the memories of our times together will never be forgotten. what i am now is because of people like you who had been w/ me since the very beginning.

thank you dear friend for everything! it doesn't matter if we see each other again next week or next month or next year because i know that you'll always be there. we share a special bond that neither of us can explain and i hope it will stay that way even if we're both old & gray.

i had fun last saturday & i miss you already. i love you my friend and God bless!
