A FB update of a long-term friend has caused these thoughts and brought some memories…I do not know them in real life, but it feels like I do. Sometimes our friends go through tough time and it is where you feel helpless with the virtual ones, as no matter how many emojis you can send in support, they just not the same hugs as the real ones…
We can never turn back the pages of time, though we may wish to relive a happy moment, or say goodbye just one last time, we never can, because the sands of time continue to fall, and we can't turn the hourglass over. So, we’ll feel tired of the race and we’ll cry quietly because time is passing too fast…
As I’ve said it many times before, the losses in virtual world are just as real as the ones we get to experience in physical realm…and our friend’s losses resonate in our very real heart with the same level of intensities, because we do care…Because friends we make here are very real friends too. And with some you get an instant “on-click” connection, just like that. And as of a sudden their life’s threads are embedded into the canvas of yours, their footprints are found next to yours in the sands of time you happened to share across all the oceans and spaces. And it feels like you can just reach your hand out and meet theirs and feel that touch…Perhaps, in some ways we do…
