It's been a while

Let's take one thing at a time. And probably think a little more than just a simple thought. The fact that semester has started. And that things are now in full swing. For those who need to know, this is my third year. And, really, what happen to the rosy picture my seniors painted to me couple of year ago? But that's another story for another fine night.

As a chairperson, I have learnt many things which probably will serve me well in years to come. From this experience, I've gotten close to myself, learnt how to deal with myself, and most important, understood myself more in 3 months than I had in 3 years in Spore. This is probably the only time I have to gauge how far I have come, and how far I still have to go to be a better man.

What saddens me the most, is not the fact that I've lost. But the fact that the persons under me felt that it was not a worthwhile journey, with me. And what hurts most, more than anything else, is that these individuals were the people who placed their trust in me. People whom I called friends. But in the end, we drifted apart. For the simple reason, that I had failed to make the journey good for them. To these friends, I am sorry.

And to those who stood by me, in times of great distress, thank you. 'Cause for every betrayal I felt, you guys were there to make things right, to give me insights I never thought I would have, and to guide me in your silent ways.

In the end, I could have lost everything, but I found, more than anything else, friends who're worth keeping. At the final destination, I asked myself, one question I have never asked myself throughout the journey, is it worth it? I have the answer. I hope, those who were with me, know your answer too. For better or for worse, this is the finishing line.
