I really don’t know how to start on this one… I’m not exactly sure what I should and should not post on this edition of my blog. It’s about this girl that I came to encounter a few years back. And if you are a regular reader of my blogs, then you know that this one is all about that good old four letter word L-O-V-E… I won’t be naming her since I don’t think anyone of you has the slightest idea of who she might be… But like it or like it, she was, and played, a big part in my life… I met her in December of 2003, in a gathering set up by an international organization, which of course has a local chapter here in the country. She was that oh so sweet and innocent girl that shone the brightest gleams among the rest, or at least in my eyes… and it was crystal clear that I was actually falling for her at that very moment that I saw her. And lucky enough, we got assigned in one group, where I was able to know her better that anyone else in that said gathering. Five days that I was in that convention, and five days that I was living one of the greatest dreams I ever had… You might say I was having a Crystallized Dream. Everything was fine… It was like I was floating through the clouds. Either that or was it just the fog? Anyway, five days I was happy and five days I was euphoric… but then that fifth day came and it was time to go home. I set foot on my passage home to the city while she went and packed her things and went to her province, miles away from where I live… I tried to make a move despite the situation, and God knows I really tried so damn hard for it, and came really close too. But then the distance caught me and she doesn’t want to give it a try because of it… after all those years that passed, I still feel for her in a very special kind of way, but circumstances doesn’t seem to want to allow it. The last time that I had a conversation with her was March of 2005, Which I guess was my fault since I didn’t really tried to contact her until just recently, when I had a chance to go to her province. I tried to call her so we could meet, but sadly, she already changed her number, without telling me of the new one… Right now, I’m trying to send her a snail mail to one of her addresses, but my letter was returned for the reason that the post office wasn’t able to locate her place. I still have one chance though, and that would be her other address, and hopefully, that one comes through… or else, I’m just going to have to face the fact that we will never become US, and that five day experience will remain a five day experience… With this, I end this blog by the lyrics of one of Jason Mraz’s songs, “You and I Both.”

“You and I Both.”
-Jason Mraz-
Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me?
Oh, things are gonna happen naturally
Oh, taking your advice and I’m looking on the bright side
And balancing the whole thing
.
Oh, but at often times those words get tangled up in lines
And the bright light turns to night
Oh, until the dawn it brings
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me
.
‘Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
Others only read of the love or the love that I love
.
See, I’m all about them words
Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
Hundreds of pages, pages, pages forwards
More words then I had ever heard and I feel so alive
.
‘Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
And if you could see me now,
.
Oh, love, love, you and I, you and I
Not so little you and I anymore,
And with this silence brings a moral story
more importantly evolving is the glory of a boy
.
‘Cause you and I both loved what you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see now
well then I’m almost finally out of,
Well, I’m almost finally finally, well I am free, oh, I’m free
.
And it’s okay if you had to go away
Oh, just remember the telephones, well they work in both ways
But if I never, ever hear them ring
If nothing else I’ll think the bells inside
have finally found you someone else and that’s okay
’cause I’ll remember everything you sang
.
‘Cause you and I both loved what you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see now
well then I’m already finally out of
Well, I’m almost finally finally, well, out of words.
