daydreaming (kind of)

"are you lonesome tonight..
do you miss me tonigh..
are you sorry distance set us apart..."(music fades off)

Those lyrics have ben ringing in my head in the past few days. I think tigger has been missing someone.

To start with, he missed late-night (on weeknights) chatting with a good mate who lives on the other side (literally) of the world. It is usually 11pm-ish when tigger finishes his dinner and this friend (let's call him Joe) will also have had his lunch finished too and back to work.

Tha chatting will usually last for an hour or two or even more depending on how chatty we are for any given night. 

There were a few awkward silence in the earlier days but it's been good now.

We learn more about each other from night to night (or day to day in his side). We do ask each other lots of 'random' questions - ranging from movies, political news to almost anything else that one could think of.

We find out that we are actually very much different in personality and preference. But thinking over a bit further, there are not few of similarities that we do share, namely, things about christianity, persistance about life and, ah, the good old issue of 'weaknesses' (some of them if i may add).

Now, Joe has been on long long holiday (yes, it has been started and won't be ended any sooner) and i think he has also found the love of his life (good on him). Things will never be the same again even though he will back to work in a month time or so.

But anyhow, i am thankful to God for all those lovely evenings we have shared. Tigger will continue treasure every moment of those days in a very special part of his heart.

ciao for now.
