a sentimental journey.



i once read an article saying that,

we are all students of the university of life.

every single one of us.

i guess it's true.

no matter how old you are,

or what you've been through,

or whether you've been doing the very same thing over and over again for years,

but the thing is,

you'll never stop learning no matter what.

there's always something new waiting to be found

a new perspective,

another revelation.

it also doesn't matter how long you've been sticking around with a person,

you'll be surprised to see how much more will be revealed.

after 6 years knowing him,

there's still always never enough of knowing.

i could say that i know him inside out now,

but i couldn't ever say that there's nothing that i don't know about him

knowing someone just never ends.

cause people changes--me and you,

and everything changes too.

today when i just feel that i really have known him inside out,

again, i've found something new.

it could be that i just discovered it.

it could be that he has changed.

or, it could be that i look upon it from another window.

it surprises me how endless is the possibility of learning something new

merely from simple things in life,

the smallest things which reveals many,

old, abandoned details with undiscovered thoughts buried underneath.

you'll never know.

and every time this brand new thoughts surface in my mind,

it never failed to amaze me.

it's like you've passed this small garden on the way to work, every frickin day of your life,

but one day you just discovered that a rare flower grows there,

or someone threw away an unopened letter there years ago,

or a lost lotto ticket that could've been a big win,

or you finally found out where mom dumps your old magazines.

it's this kind of small but sentimental revelations.

life is actually a series of sentimental journeys for me.

and every time this happens,

it always makes me smile when i realized that,

there's always more to life than we could ever imagined.
