I just realised that I have not posted these photos in my draft, from my birtbday at the end of last month.
You had arranged for a beautiful lunch at Studley Park Boathouse, Kew. I remember the weather was perfect, and the place was beautiful.
I was the happiest girl that moment, being surrounded with so much love and affection.
Smiles that radiate through the darkest of nights :) *kaching*
Your family, who treated me like I was part of the family :)
We spent the afternoon, rowing along Yarra River. It was a very happy moment for me. The last time we went and did something like that was probably Hamilton Island? Kayaking, the both of us learning how to sail, and worked our little catamaran, Hobie on our own.
We looked so happy.
I know things have been hard the past few months. I knew we had issues to iron out. But you told me that you have been unhappy for awhile. But I really couldn't tell that you were at the brink of walking away. You hid it so well, I really couldn't tell.
For whatever it's worth... thank you for everything. The good and bad times. The memories will be forever cherished, for as long as I live (and not have dementia). My love for you does not die, when the relationship dies. It does not fade. It does not tarnish. It merely gets transformed into a different form, and gets stored away in a safe box in my heart.
Take good care.

"Like Hannah, we have known bitter times! Daily, we face rejection and despair!"
"Say it!"
"And yet consider once again the painting before us. Hope! Like Hannah, that harpist is looking upwards, a few faint notes floating upwards to the heavens. She dares to hope...She has the audacity...to make music...and praise God...on the one string she has left!"
Barack Obama, Dreams From My Father, Chicago - Pg.293
May you gather your strenght from deep within, no matter how weak, to have the audacity to hope for a better tomorrow.
A difficult journey is upon you and you have got your heart as the only compass to guide you out of the woods. The sea shore is out there.
Benkaiser: I will not lose faith, I will not lose hope. For without those, I'm as good as dead.
I believe, that some day, things will be better. And perhaps, when I look back - I can say, it happened for a reason.
