Oh how i remember playing around the almost limitless confines of my gradma's house.. though the "playing" has progressed from ice and water to football to PS1 or even cards... Sadly though.. we seem to be skipping the whole "playing" part these days.. it seems as though we are getting too old.. What seemed like pretty parallel lives diverge and drift further as we find our own ways in life..
Much to the contrary, our relationships never seem to grow distant.. It has come to the point where we are so comfortable with each other that we just click no matter how much time stands between our meetings.. We practically grew up together.. and that's something i'm so thankful about..
I'm scared. Scared to think that someday we might not be able to meet up again.. scared to find that someday our paths will take us so far that they may never intersect again.. Scared.. to lose this gift... At this point of time, it feels like i'm on a ride that i never want to end..
Well, i think we would all go through a point in time like this.. I just felt like posting what i was feeling at the moment...
Etched in my memories... Christmas 2008

I have seen this post in your sister's blog. Yes it is also our tradition to have a reunion...
There will always be that risk that we will one day lose that closeness that we each have with one another, be it cousins or friends. I strongly believe that every relationship needs to be fostered. As long as we care, as long as the relationship is important to us, we can find ways to stay connected. Whether in a simple SMS, or email (technology of the 21st century ;P) we can still be close. Of course, sometimes, with the passing of time, and physical barriers, these fears may be inevitable. Growing up together seals us together in history. We may grow up, and drift away, but at least we can look back at the memories and fun times we'd shared and throw our heads back and laugh.
But then again, it's not a rule. Not all relationships will have the same end. So let's pray and hope that we can still tease and laugh at each other and be "healthy" buddies forevermore! ;P
