Cemetery Sunset & Near Full Moon Walk

George called late to walk.
I was beginning to think he never would.
It was such a cold windy day, but not as grey and blustery as yesterday.

I walked to work this morning,
wearing only a sweater, singlet, skirt, socks and walking shoes.
On my way I passed a time/temp clock and at 8:33a it was 37F.
Brrr.
Nippley.
What the hell was I thinking?!?
(My brain still in Florida mode maybe? Wishfully, yes.)
I hadn't realised how cold it really was.
I wished I had mittens!
The rest of me was warm really, even my bare legs.
My sweater has only 3/4 sleeves so my forearms to fingertips were quite cold by the time I got to work, and took til I got home to really warm up again.
*digs out mittens*

On my way in this morning, when I got to 4th St and 9th Ave E,
I saw my friend Reñan up ahead by his car.
It looked like he saw me too, but he made no effort to even say or wave hi.
I had the urge to yell hello and run up and hug him.
(more than an urge, as I'd not seen him in weeks and really miss him and our hugs/talks)
I kept on walking that side of the street, and as I got up where he was parked,
he had gone inside his building. Ah well.

It really saddens me that it has come to this.
That two people who were once so close, sharing talks, laughs and hugs, can no longer even talk or acknowledge one another.
I always thought when people got older, that this wouldn't occur like some silly high-school break-up or dramas.
Two years wasted?
I sincerely hope not, and that one day,
he'll make contact again and we can have some good times again as friends.

As my favourite quote reads:

"Each friend represents a world in us,
a world not possibly born until they arrive,
and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born." ~ Anaïs Nin ~

To me, Kev and Kim fit this so well.
I was glad to make their acquaintance, be accepted, and create this new world upon our meeting. One day, I hope to go back and visit them again.

Anyway - on my walk with George we talked and I snapped a few photos toward the end of the sunset and the rising of the near full moon.

At the end of our walk, he stopped me and gave me my hug. Thanks pal!
I am so thankful for his big warm hugs, as all my other huggers are so far away, or not around anymore:
Kevin, Rach, Sam, My Family, Joe and Reñan, and all my Aussie mates I miss so very much.

I send them all positive thoughts and hugs, wherever they may be, and for whatever happens in their day/night.

¡Abrazos!
