On My Way

I was granted the time off to go see my aunt. My folks are also going and we'll all be flying out tomorrow night, flight at 11.40pm. I'll be in Melbourne for 10 days and my mom and dad will be staying 'til the end of August. To clarify, my Aunt Medina isn't really my true aunt per se. She was adopted by my grandmother when she was just a small child. Her parents weren't able to care for her because of the physical/financial hardship [I believe it was during war time as well]. So ever since, she's been with us as part of the family. She's more like a big sister to us 4 kids cuz she's not much older than my oldest sister. She looked after us whenever she could... and she did. We only call her our 'auntie' because of our high respect for her... and so much.

So I'll be on my way tomorrow!! I just checked my passport which I renewed 2 years ago, this one expires in 2014. Y'know, by then, I'll be 48 years of age. Looking back, looking forward, life is such an amazing journey... a fantastic journey. No matter how grand of a writer one is, life itself cannot be put into words, in any form, in any way. So whatever may come, I'm enjoying every bit of it.

Take care everyone, take really good care of yourselves cuz everyday IS a wonderful day. See you all when I get back.

Much luff.
