Friends

W is going for a one year masters study in Spain in Sep. We decided to meet for a meal, a bit of a celebratory one to celebrate my last work day and W new education journey.

I booked sun with moon at Wheelock, lunch was fully booked. Woah lucky I made a booking in advance via messenger.

We ate lunch - the variety was there. Vegetables, eel rice, it was a nice portion. Ate desserts too. Next we walked around a bit before walking to tcc at shaw. Have drinks and more food.

Haha as we age, we just want to sit down and drink or eat. None of us want to shop - our wants are so low. 

We talked so much. W has quit last jul, and she said the first thing is to slow down and just enjoy the moment. Told her about my plan to focus on exercise and running. She shared about her hiking experience.

We also talked about how we want to live if told we die soon, or within one year. We just want to spend time with love ones, and won't change anything else we are doing. Life is short. I don't know I have. She talked about her father anxiety about death. For me, I wish my death is swift. That is all I wish for. No prolonged suffering for the sake of suffering. I am very more concerned about the quality of life than just living.

If I am at my deathbed, I will miss drinking a warm cup of coffee, eating chocolates, chips, walking around and feeling free. Wind blowing on my face and hair. Going to toilet myself. These are things I have, but never have the mind space to admire and appreciate.

You only live life once.
