for the twins

i haven't seen you both in a loooong time.  i think the last time was when you were about to leave for the states.  but i really can't remember. :(

i always found it funny that after being almost inseparable in grade school (we did a lot of crazy stuff then!!! haha.), and sending each other snail mail throughout high school, we never got to really spend time together anymore even when we were just a few kilometers apart in college.  and it continued on even when we were all working.

i don't know if it was just me, or the fact that we had different friends already.  but then again, the good thing about the friendship was that we really didn't have to meet face to face.  we kept in touch, and still do sometimes.  though now, i wonder why we have never done it oftener.  (keeping in touch, i mean...)

i was excited to meet up with you when i went there early this year.  but Fate had other plans too.  maybe, just maybe, Fate and the Gods have a big plan ahead:  like us meeting by chance while strolling the ruins of the roman empire in turkey, or the pyramids in giza, or snorkeling in palau.  haha...

you are the only good friends i've had whose weddings i missed, and i feel bad about it.  i'm sorry for not making it to your weddings...  i hope to be there for the christening of your youngest kids, though.

i know life is treating you well, and you have the greatest loves you can ever hope for.  and for that i am thankful. 

happy birthday, chary and christy...
