beyond boundaries
i send a package for maffi and alyssa last week. it contained a gold necklace for my bestfriend and a bunch of goodies for alyssa. in that package, i made a slumbook of my bestfriend's life which i made personally. it included moments in high school, our escapades, our pictures, our secrets, the men in our life. yesterday, she called me at work and she thanked me. i opened my email today and she also wrote a thank you letter for me. she said she cried while browsing through the pages.
maffi and i went through a lot. our emotional rollercoaster rides we encountered seemed unbearable at the times it occured. our live's trials were overpouring and multiplying. but it was during these moments that we gave imporatance to our friendship. it was these challenging times that made us closer. it was during these incidents when we clenched ot each other. to her, i poured my tears and she defended me all the way. in me, she confided her innermost and best kept secrets. we spent endless hours watching filipino movies at her house. other times, we spent the whole day and night chatting and telling stories about our entire lives and more.
together, we explored and enhanced our spirituality during BANAL NA PAG-AARAL ( holy studies). we acquired leadership roles during leadership class in high school. we flirted with our ex boyfriends in Homecoming , Sweethearts Ball, and Prom dances. we learned over the years that we were Englishly inclined and we were averagely smart in mathematics and arithmetic (and oh, I hated that teacher in high school -ms. habibian). her family embraced me with open arms and my family became her extended family. i witnessed her first neartbreak and how she rebelled from it and she saw how martyr i was to my exboyfriends. i saw her fall and get up. she stood by me when i was down. she was one person whom i knew will believe in me no matter what i do. and i hope she knows i will be here for her no matter what.
my friendship with maff is irreplaceable. i am now a nurse and still planning to go to medical school in the folowwing year. maffi is a paraegal now and is venturing out to law school and eventually become a lawyer. although i am in california, and she is settled now in nevada, and although we do not talk as much, we have stabilized our friendship that no wall can break our bond. this is the story of me, len and my bestfriend, maffi. it just calls to show that friendships are beyond boundaries once you have established a foundation.
NOTE: thank you, maff for keeping our friendship alive. looking froward for more!
