Natural Speed Please
It was sad news for me to hear; one of my American friends has decided to leave Japan after an eight-year stay in Japan.
She called and asked me to have lunch with her yesterday.
Since she has been very busy managing her own English school for kids, we haven't been able to meet up very often; however, I believe that we have a great friendship built on the faith we have in each other.
Even while I am writing this journal entry, I can't help but shed tears feeling lonely for her. She is going to leave here in five months.
Sometimes, people ask me how many friends I have. I can't answer. I don't know exactly how many. It seems that most people assume that I have accumulated a lot of friends, but I don't think so. It's because I don't care for shallow friendships, so maybe I'm a bit discriminating about it.
I have been thinking about friendships a lot lately.
"Good-bye" always drives me nuts..
