It’s been three weeks since my buddy in SA passed away, and I am still feeling it. Although I haven’t seen him since last December in HK, I still feel his presence, I still expect him to come pick me up from the airport when I fly back to SA next year.

2008 has been a year of drama, with movie-plot-style twists, and surprises. I matured. I gained new friendships, bettered or worsened old relationships, experienced friends’ deaths, witnessed marriages, opened myself to different perspectives, sought and strengthened in the Truth.

His death becomes a constant reminder to me, to live a life true to myself, to live a life that make impacts on others’ lives, to live a life cheerfully.

Ken, you will always be my broer, you have made an impact in my life, a positive one.
