saying goodbye is going to be hard...

i came here... knowing full well that the more experience i gain from this place, the more i am going to miss it..

i came here... knowing full well that every friendship i make, every life i invest my time in, i am going to miss them...

does that mean that it would have been better i did not have come here at all?

no, of course not! but somehow i wish it i could bring back some of the blessings I found here... some of the culture, some of the beauty, some of the people...

without a perspective of eternity, i found no satisfying answers to such partings. but i found comfort in Christ, knowing that my labour in the gospel will eventually allow me to meet some of these amazing people in heaven for eternity...

there is always this hint of escapism lurking... there is a part of me that doesn't want to wake up from this dream.. but i am convinced that to move on and step into the future demands faith - faith to trust that God has something better ahead... in this life and eternity to come...
