And Another Bird Flies Away

Time for adieus,another set of goodbyes.One of my best friends, Surya is now moving away to the United Kingdom for good.

She was known as the baby of our lil group of 5.Tonight when I spoke to her to wish her the best for the future ahead,she sounded like a woman.Yes the baby had become a woman.The maturity was evident in her voice.It seemed impossible so long ago but it is true.

Surya is going to her husband and going to start a whole new chapter there.There is apprehension and excitement at the same time.It is after all across several seas to a brand new place.New people,new lifestyle. The highlight of course is the loving husband.

Again I feel a sadness,a feeling of loss.Whenever friends leave the country,it definitely gets to me.What if we never meet again? I know its easy to keep in touch in today's world but is it always possible?It certainly requires time and work.What if I am too busy or she is too preoccupied?It can happen to anyone but still the feeling sure irks me.Once lost and then found.That is not the case always,is it?Soon another friend will fly away to another country too and the feeling shall seep again.However life goes on and like my favorite quote goes, 'Tomorrow is another day'.So waiting for a happy reunion with my 4 bosom friends after a short while and the next time hopefully as a bigger group.

I shall end by saying that I am glad to have met the smallest person with the biggest heart.Wish you all the best in life Surya.And remember,we are just a phone call or a click away. :) Will miss you.
