Sing a song

She is a 27y old Irish girl, wonderful beautiful person and a friend of mine. A traveler with one way ticket. A yoga teacher, reiki healer, meditator, fun lover, easy goer and cool. And I love her to bits.

I met Paula in Kuala Lumpur in October last year. We spent an evening and a day together. She had just come from Philippines, me from Borneo. She was going to Ireland, I had many and then again no idea where I would be going. But through the conversations with her and other people at the hostel, I figured out exactly what I wanted to do.

All the while after that she has still continued travelling. We met now in Brussels as this is the budget gateway to Mexico (150euro one way!!!).

How wonderful to talk to a traveler again! And this is not to say I somehow value less my other friends. It is just that certain topics with her are so easy to discuss and seem less “crazy”. My sister in spirit as another one of my friends described her.

I woke up at 5AM to say goodbye as Paula was catching an early morning flight. Enough rested or perhaps just excited almost as if I was flying off, I didn’t go to sleep again. Bright light from outside came in as I opened the curtains. I sat down on my meditation cushion and as I became better aware of my surroundings I heard the birds singing.
