This morning I went to the early church service - as usual - and afterwards I went to Provence restaurant in Yaletown for breakfast with Jennifer. We were there almost a year ago too, on December 24, and we sat at almost the same table again this year. The difference though, this time around, was two-fold.
1- the weather: it was snowy last year, very snowy: in fact, it was snowing while we were eating. This time around the weather was cold and windy, but no snow.
2- our status: last year we were together, enjoying getting to know each other. This year, we're sort of in limbo - trying to figure out where we are, where we belong.
Ironically though, we get along better than ever now. Perhaps it's because the pressure's off, and we can just be ourselves, or maybe we just know each other better, but whatever the case may be, we understand each other better.
Without a doubt, she's my best friend.
After breakfast we got on the Canada Line to the airport, where she got on a plane to Hong Kong. She will spend Christmas there with family: brother, father, and mother.
I wish her a blessed Merry Christmas. May it be a time of Joy and Blessing.
