See You When The Sun Rises

The first time I learned "goodbye" was in the wet summer of eighteen years old; Shi Shishi asked me, "Have you said goodbye to that uncle? Every time you say goodbye, you have to treat it as carefully as you did the last time, you know. ?"

After Shi Shi finished speaking, I suddenly realized that I hurriedly slid open the door of the abandoned elementary school classroom, put on my slippers, and ran towards the rusted door. Fortunately, uncle had to start his old van on a rainy day. He said to him loudly and respectfully, "Uncle, goodbye."

"I prefer rainy days to sunny days," as he watched his car slowly drive away, with a cloudy look in his head; at the time, his phone was playing Courtney Jaye's version of Who'll Stop The Rain .

The first time I learned to "cuddle" was in my friends' apartment.

Miss Cannabis gave me some of her dinner, it was natto, it was delicious; Mr. Cherry took out a booklet and asked me to leave a picture on it; I carefully took out a pencil and put a ball on the table The toilet paper turned into a white rose. At that time, he was lying on the floor writing like a child, and there was a hole in the sock of his left foot.

When I finished drawing and was about to hand the booklet to him, he looked at me with a grin, shoved a thin "Planting Notebook" into my hand, and said, "Go back and read it again!"

"it is good."

Dinner was packed and ready to say goodbye. The two of them followed me to the door and stood by watching me put on my shoes. When I finally tied my shoelaces and got up, I saw Mr. Cherry with his hands outstretched. His eyes reflected Asteroid B612.

Holding back the tears, I hugged him gently.

"Don't Taiwanese know how to hug?"

Before I could react, he moved his footsteps towards me, hugged me into his arms, and engraved solidly between us for a few seconds.

I smiled and wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes and said, "So this is the real hug, thank you so much."

 Dear M,

The universe works in strange ways. One will never know their plan, one can only have faith.

Look up at the stars, relish the night sky.
Look into a lake, feel the water flow deeply.
Watch the sun rise, feel your spirit warm for a new day.
Watch the sun set, say goodbye for now.

It's been a pleasure getting to know you. From the late kitchen chats that only scratched the surface of our paradigms.

One of my favourite quote is "Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect."

Keep learning.
Keep searching for truth.
Stay curious.
Stay positive.

See you when the sun rises.

Your friend, A

At this moment, I want to say goodbye and hug to "that self", pat her on the head, and say to her:

"You did your best at that time. Remember, there are still many people in the world like Shi Shishi, Uncle Yutian, Miss Cannabis, Mr. Cherry - always warm and sincere to others."

See you when the sun rises.
