Happy new year again

So I'm sitting here in the dark of Healesville Melbourne, looking up in the sky and really appreciating the beauty of the stars, and I think, I am the luckiest girl in the world right now. Words can't describe the intensity of this moment. Ok, so I may be a little tipsy right now. But I couldn't care less could I? Once again here comes the times of the year that I give thanks to everybody that ever meant anything to me, only thing, this year, i have only one person.

So here goes.

San Thit:
Thank you babe. Another year in our friendship have come and gone and here we are still, standing stronger than we've ever been. Can I even thank you enough?? i've always been so sure that i could count on you no matter what, and you've never ever let me down before, always faithfully being my pillar of strength through the times where getting out of bed was as unfathomable as shooting for the stars. you were always, always, there for me. often telling me things i dont wanna hear, and making me face truths i never wanna believe. i always believe that a friend is one of the most amazing things you can have in the world, and the best thing you can ever be. and boy do you bring out the best in me.

thank you so much for all your support in my every decision, for sitting with me at the airport before i took that fateful journey to shanghai that literally changed my life for good. i wouldnt be sitting here in Healesville writing this if not for that. i want you to know how much it meant to me to have you sit there at Coffee Bean with me and tell me that everything's gonna be ok and that all i need to do now is to have fun in Shanghai. we both know that i stopped wearing my emotions on my sleeve since i tried to pick myself up after julian left, but the truth is, sitting at Coffee Bean with you, i was broken beyond broken. i didnt even know how to face it anymore. i didnt even know if words were good enough to begin telling you how it hurt, how it tore me apart inside. running away to some other country was the only way i knew how to begin dealing with it. but you were there though it all. you stood beside quietly and understood that we didnt need words to express what's really in our hearts of hearts. the silence between us is as comfortable as the laughter, and i love that.

so again, for the millionth time, thank you girl. i wish you could know how eternally and sincerely grateful i am to have the honor of you in my life. our friendship humbles me. love you always xx

inez.
