Today marks 9 years since I moved to this country.
Last year, I noticed a book on my shelf: Rindu by Tere Liye. I couldn’t remember ever buying it, yet somehow, it’s followed me through the last five homes I’ve lived in.
Rindu means yearning, longing, missing, nostalgia.
Curious, I began reading it. As I flipped through the pages, I found a message written on the last page. It turns out Ebi gave me this book 9 years ago, the day she accompanied me to the airport.
Time flies. Though our paths in life have taken different directions, we’ve stayed connected supporting each other from afar for 17 years now.
Some friendships, like this one, quietly endure the distance. And somehow, they always find a way to remind you they’re still there. 🤍☺️
