Rest In Peace

“Death ends a life, not a relationship.” 

-Mitch Alborn-

 “my feet will want to walk to where you are sleeping, but I shall go on living.”

-Pablo Neruda-
  

“We were promised sufferings. They were part of the program. We were even told, 'Blessed are they that mourn,' and I accept it. I've got nothing that I hadn't bargained for. Of curse it is different when the thing happens to oneself, not to others, and in reality, not imagination.” 

-C.S. Lewis-

Hadn't really had a chance to know him, because our encounters was always brief. Nevertheless, i'm pretty sure he was a great man, considering all the stories that my wife and my father in law used to told me.

the one and the other

finding the perfect 'somebody' is not an easy thing to do,and i'm not merely talking about the romantical kind of perfect, such as romeo-juliet (probably not a good example due to their tragic ending), simpson's homer-marge. the relationship could also be work related, like sukarno-hatta, woodward-bernstein, and lets not forget about lennon-mccartney (or is it mccartney-lennon?) or they could also be family members, like the wright brothers.
but sometimes it doesn't have to be about finding the perfect partner, but it could also be about the perfect rival. eg. superman-lex luthor, steve jobs-bill gates

those mention above are a prime examples of partnership (or rivalries) at its best, why? because you can't mention the one without the other. the one encourages the other to be better and in the end, they would both achieve greatness (or suffer a tragic death).

so let us find our partners in crime, in life, and if we're lucky in love

The Path

It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.
