I never knew this can be very difficult to me - that is to blog about this person.
I'd wanted to blog this friend of mine eversince I started blogging. He is the only blogger I personally know. He is somehow responsible why I finally went to public blogging despite so much hesitations. He is also the first person to know about my blogsite for he had helped me set-up my blog lay-out.
He definitely has a right to brag about his blog for he's a recognized blogger being a nominee to several Blog Awards. He's very committed to his blog. Blogging became a part of his life. But because of a pressing situation, he decided to temporarily stop blogging. While it is during this time that I'd started mine.
LOOKING BACK
I met this person in my 2nd company here in Dubai. I started in the company just a week ahead of him. I had a difficulty then to gel with my filipino officemates for they're already close with each other when I got in. I don't feel like there's a place for me to the group. Being both the newest, i felt like we're on the same boat.
If I remember it right, our friendship started with just a small conversation while walking home after office. Followed by countless exchange of opinions and ideas wherever we maybe. I was too happy for I found a new friend in him. I had always a good laugh when I'm with him. I find him so amusing.
Though I won't deny that there were also those days he had made me cry, knowingly and unknowingly (i can see my friends smiling to this statement). There was also a time, i'd thought of giving up on him, i felt like he's too much for me to handle. Glad, I didn't.
If you don't know him that much, you'll think he's not nice for there is an arrogance in his personality. He is often misunderstood. He keeps everything to himself. Even if he seems to have a problem bigger than we could ever imagine, he won't tell anyone.
I care so much about this person. Hope he knows that. He's probably the first person I'd given my full attention and affection here in Dubai (except for my original friends with me from Phils). I wish him only good things in life. I pray that he will soon find true happiness and peace. He's deserving of it.
PRESENT
As I think of it right now, I've missed a lot of opportunities because of our friendship. I'd somehow lost interest in meeting other people. My lovelife had been sacrificed. lol. But seriously, I really thank God, we're still friends after all this time.
Ooops, don't over-react with this, i am not blaming you. It just meant I enjoyed too much your company that I thought i was not missing anything. Besides, i trusted you enough. I know you will not think of me as less of a woman just because i am often seen in public with you.
I know sometimes i get so irritating, sorry for that. But sometimes, you're twice as much! :-) I just hope that despite all the troubles and problems we are facing, we will be able to maintain and be committed to this friendship.
Note: The author wishes that this particular blogpost would make her friend happy and smile once more. No violent reaction please. :-)
