November 16, 2012

60 years old!  Who'd a thunk it!

It has been quite a day.  A lot of good-byes or should I say auf wiedersehen.  The emotion of the day has been a bit overwhelming but oddly invigorating as well.

My birthday party was wonderful.  I am so blessed to have so many good friends.  Friendship is not defined by time.  From some of my oldest friends who I have known for 43 years to ones I only met 6 months ago, they are all precious to me.

I am still not fully aware that I will be leaving Vancouver Island in just over 1 day.  My time in Qualicum Beach especially has been wonderful.  I had wanted to live here for so long and feel that I should have moved here before I did in 2001, but better late than never.  I thought then that Qualicum would be the last stop, but I was wrong.  Something impels me on, and I have to follow.

Next stop Sri Lanka.  Hold on!
