The things I’d do to be by your side
To make you laugh
To tell you how much I love you
To tickle you
To see your smile
To give you warm hugs and kisses
To feel your love
….To feel your love
Rivers and roads, rivers and roads, rivers till I reach you
But a wise man once said to me,
“Although I may not be with you physically, I’ll always be in your heart and you in mine”
Kenya
Kenya was absolutely perfect - by far the best one month of my life. A one month bloody well spent, $3k damn worth down to every cent. Being away from the hectic life in Singapore was just a refreshing break I could very well get used to. Waking up to greenery every morning, waking up at 530 to catch the sunrise, sending the girls to school, chilling by the lounge, chilling by the benches outside the house gazing at greens, stargazing every night (millions of stars, no exaggeration) by the swings accompanied with hot chocolate, heart to heart talks till 4 in the morning, late night supper every night, maggie noodles every night, cabbage potato rice everyday for lunch and dinner (shall skip the complaints..), not touching my phone, no internet for 27 days.. waking up to giraffes outside my balcony, driving around along to trance bobbing our heads in sheer happiness, horse riding, picnic lunches, karaoke sessions, afternoon naps, people watching, spending time with the girls & loving them with all our hearts - in turn receiving so much more because they have the ability to love so endearingly, so unconditionally, it’s something we can never get to experience in Singapore if i could say. It made me realise how they love others vs the way we love.. we have all our inhibitions and we never give without receiving. We exchange love in a barter trade but is that what love is about? Giving without expecting anything in return, throwing ourselves out into the wild without any safety nets to fall back on, taking leaps of faith, loving one to the last strand of hair and to the last inch of bone… the girls have taught me how to love and how to love good.
Life in Africa has been damn bloody amazing and it kinda fucking sucks that I have to come back to reality…. It’s gonna take some time adapting to the fast paced life here I just wish time would have past slo w e r when I was there because it’s day 1 in Singapore and I’m already missing and wishing I was back there it’s crazy
honestly scared out of my fucking wits
Never left my loved one(s) for such a long period ever before in my life……………………… I hope i can do this ;”(

Stunned at the decisions I make
Disappointed at my lack of self-control
Amused at the epic proportions of the things we do
Perplexed at the inextricability of this passion we share
Amazed at my unending love for you
