It's Never Easy to Say Goodbye
So our journey here at Silicon Valley is REALLY drawing to an end. It's actually surprisingly near and I'm appalled that I'm still so chill about it. Well until now that is. Maybe it's all Mohan's fault because he kept lamenting about the prospect of going home so much so that I'm now affected by it. But I guess I'm still a sentimental person despite my oft cold exterior. There are so many things here which I'm not willing to let go of. The memories, the people, the place, the opportunities and the home away from home.
There is something else bugging me besides the above. Above all, I guess, I'm afraid that I'll be the only one hanging on to the memories we created here. I'm afraid that after we go back to Singapore, the solid friendship that we formed here will simply vanish. If nobody else but me continues to keep those memories close to their hearts, it will be as though they never happened before.
This sounds vaguely familiar eh my friends? A similar situation happened barely 3 years ago. I wouldn't say I have completely gotten over that. I still hope that when I get back to Singapore, those bridges that were broken can be rebuilt, fortified and made to last as long as anybody can possibly remember. And I will not slack on fortifying the bridges that are now strong.
I just hope that those whom I call my good friends can join me in fortifying those bridges.
So as with any graduation, there are graduation songs. Here's one and it never fails to reflect how I really (really!) feel
不要问 不要说
一切尽在不言中
这一刻 偎着烛光
让我们静静的渡过
莫挥手 莫回头
当我唱起这首歌
怕只怕 泪水轻轻的滑落
愿心中永远留着我的笑容
伴你走过每一个春夏秋冬
几许愁 几许忧
人生难免苦与痛
失去过 才能真正懂得去珍惜和拥有
情难舍 人难留
今朝一别各西东
冷和热 点点滴滴在心头
愿心中永远留着我的笑容
伴你走过每一个春夏秋冬
伤离别 离别虽然在眼前
说再见 再见不会太遥远
若有缘 有缘就能期待明天
你和我重逢在灿烂的季节
不要问 不要说
一切尽在不言中
这一刻 偎着烛光
让我们静静的渡过
莫挥手 莫回头
当我唱起这首歌
愿心中留着笑容
伴你渡过每个春夏秋冬
