Good Bye

This is my final post. Seven years ago I was a foreigner in a land which effortlessly transformed its desert terrains to a modern city. Today I am no longer a stranger. Looking back I realized that the city never accepted me, years shall pass and the city will evolve and once again it will be a strange place. So I sat back and wondered what really made me comfortable? The answer was plain at sight yet I saw it much too late. Tomorrow I shall leave this city, and only now I realized that it were the people I met over my seven years stay that put me in my comfort zone.

For a good deal of time I kept away from social networking sites because I gave into the false optimism that those I love shall always be around. I denied the fact I will someday have to let go. I made promises to keep showing up but I know I made them to make my departure easier.  Tomorrow seven years of friendship shall be distant, and all that shall remain will be memories. I would like my friends to know that distance may physically separate us but the memories that we share shall last for eternity. All of us have unknowingly influenced each other’s life and that has caused us to walk paths we now choose. This is not the end of our years together but just another phase of our friendship and although I cannot predict what is in store for me in the coming years I see not this moment to be an end but rather a beginning.

Till our paths cross again

Adios
