Epilogue

It is when the mind is free to wander that we can reflect on the past and feel the pangs of separation and longing for the old and the familiar. Sentimental notions war with the harsh realities of life: leaving, moving forward, moving apart. It is hardly possible to remain swathed in the blanket of nostalgia forever.

We have learned so much from each other, and grown immensely in each others' presence. The fun and laughter, the victories and failures, the joys and sorrows, the fears and doubts, the trials and tribulations we shared help make us the way we are today.

Together, we made these memories. Each of us craftsmen contributed to the intricate designs on a portion of the tapestry of our lives, thereby leaving our imprints on this piece. These memories are uniquely ours. They are vestiges of our history to be cherished for a long time to come.

Soon we will set sail for unfamiliar territories. I take this opportunity to wish everyone all the best as we traverse the realm of the unknown. Also, a million thanks for the wonderful time we have had together. Hopefully, our paths will cross again as we journey through life.

To all, bon voyage.

A new chapter has begun.

Goodbyes are not forever,
Goodbyes are not the end,

They simply mean I'll miss you,
Until we meet again! ~Anon
