Some doors open,
and other doors close.
Perhaps,
not quite in the
tit-for-tat way that
super optimists imply.
Yet,
here you are: on the cusp
of an amazing
adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I wish you well. And
as the thread that
binds our lives
together stretches
over
13,000 kilometers,
I know that
you will flourish,
grow, and
expand into another
part of your true
self.
The dust of
comfortable, everyday
living
falling away to new
things, strange
place, and unusual
dialects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then one
day, you\u2019ll return,
like the sun from
behind
the clouds.
More glorious than
before,
having lived
in full colour,
forever changed
by moments
like these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
