sorry guys if until now i didn't post about my mothers birthday. it's just that i'm a little angry about it and well it's another blog. anyway today i want to post about something that happened to me on our acquaintance party last saturday. it was held on a beach resort.
 
it was really fun actually. of course the queen dance on the program! and we won first place! (we had a talent contest!) i'll post the video next time since i use my camera phone and i still need to buy a software that can convert the videos. anyway after the progam we went swimming.
 
my classmates were goofing around in the beach and played in the water.
 
and me?
 
i went into the water. went until the water was on my neck level and just stood there.
 
i still remember the day he died...
 
i still remember the tears...
 
i still remember the sadness...
 
i still remember him...
 
there i was on the water just standing there. cursing the sea.
 
why did you took him? why? the questions flooded my mind until i couldn't think straight.
 
but still the i was in the water just standing there and letting the waves carry me.
 
at the moment i want to be with him... i know it was foolish. i know it was wrong. but something pulled me back.
 
there i was in the water just standing there. i ignore the noise around me because all i hear is the laughter of friends. i just stood there feeling the seawater.
 
i know it was crazy that i went into the water. but i have to.
 
i have to let him go. to finally let him go. to finally accept the fact that he was gone.
 
so i stood there not moving another inch. just letting the waves carry me.
 
yes. i said my goodbyes. i no longer feel sad whenever i see the ocean. athough i still could not take myself to the place where he drowned.
 
just one small step at a time. i would let him go slowly.
 
after that i swam ashore and i went to my friend whom i confided about this. she just looked at me and said she knows why i was so emotional. and she knows it was my process of letting go.
 
yeah. i was letting him go.
 
i played with my friends younger brother and took some pictures with my camera phone. after that my classmates bought something alcoholic to drink and i got a little drunk. =)
 
yeah it was a fun day. but i know he was there with us all the time. and that really made me happy. =)
 
here are some photos that i took...
 
ok i was a little drunk in this picture... =)

on that day it was a little cloudy. yet i found the place so peaceful. i felt his presence... i felt he was contented and that made me feel better. yes, it was time to let him go. he was a great friend and phenomenal human being. he touched so many lives. and i know right now he's happy in heaven. and i know right now his telling me to stop crying and continue living my life. although i can't help crying...

i still miss him.

my friend, my angel... Rafael...

    queen:  I know how hard this is for you.  And I know how hard it is to let go of someone who was so important in your life... someone who is so important in your life.  You'll never forget, and I don't imagine you'll want to, but little by little, the pain will lessen, and you'll see just what a strong and loving woman you are.  I can see it already.  I love you, beautiful queenie.  {{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

    You experienced such a personal loss, and yet you were able to experience such an emotional point in your life on this day.  I loved the last photo of the clouds. It says so much about what you were feeling.

    queenie -- sea, sky, sun, wind, clouds, surf, sand, seabirds' cries... i can imagine how it would trigger in you some cosmic connection to your friend, and with that, emotional release and closure. empty beaches at dawn often do that to me too. ((hugs))

    quietone: i'm glad you like them.
     
    moonriver: hugs to you too... =)

    Queen......beaches are the perfect places to mourn. Your tears get mixed with the water. The sound of the waves against the shores sooth you to forgetfullness. The clouds seem embrace you.

    I know.

    I still remember, like you do.

    I will never forget, like you will not.

    {{{{{hugs}}}}}
