Memories...

Sometimes all you need is to see someone you haven't seen for a while... a very dear close wonderful friend, to remember those moments spent together many, many years ago, and how true friendships really do stand the test of time, and no matter what happens, you love them and they love you just as much as if you had never been apart.

Friends are truly the best thing in the world. Not ice cream. Not even love. (Since love without friendship would probably not last long anyway).

Today I am thankful for my dear friends, old and new, scattered across countries and continents, but who are incredibly dear to me and who I miss and love very much.

Thank you for your friendship. :)

Dreams, old friends, new friends and moving...

As the title and description of this blog make evident, this is a blog about random thoughts, so it is probably best not to look for a connection between this post and the next, or even between phrases in the same post... it's random!

I had a dream about my wedding, something like 8 years ago. I don't usually remember my dreams, but I remember this one because of one particular thing: when I walked down the aisle and looked up at my husband-to-be, I realized I did not know him. What does that mean? I have a couple of ideas...

After I had that dream, about a year later, I moved to a different country and met many interesting people. Every time I met someone new, I wondered if they were the unknown face from my dream...

The friends I made back then are now old friends. I've made many other friends since then, and they're the "new" friends now who will become old friends with time. But I've stopped wondering if any of my new or old friends are the one from the dream. All except maybe one.

Now I'm at the verge of moving again. Will I move? Should I move?


I already miss my old friends. I don't want to start missing all the new ones. Not so fast. We haven't had enough time together. And they're so amazing!! I don't want to miss them...

But my poor heart has already left... it is wandering somewhere over the atlantic ocean, half way between where I am now and my next destination...
