Friendly Friend
This is Othelia, a friend from Almaty. She is on her way home to South Africa after spending a year in Almaty, and we decided to meet up since she was staying in the UK for a week or so. Unfortunately, she had a wee accident and wasn't able to fly to Aberdeen, instead getting a train up to Edinburgh to meet me. This, I find is amazing - she was prepared to travel up to Edinburgh to meet me. ME!
I haven't known Othelia for years, but between her and Birgit (another Almaty friend), I've met two of the sweetest, kind and amazing women that I am proud to call my friends.
From today in particular, I found myself in awe - such a positive outlook in life, the look she gets in her eyes as she recites some profound thinking, or reading an excerpt from the children's book that she bought for the journey home (looks AMAZING by the way!), constant smiles, and a general vibe of contentment radiated from her - I had such a fantastic day. For me, it was only a 2 hour drive or so, but it was worth every minute, for the day I got to spend with her.
(For the record, I still love Anna! Just feeling very very happy at the moment :))
Oh, and this is where I admit that I am not going to be able to complete a year of uninterrupted blipping - my photos from this weekend have been wiped from my memory card. There is a chance that I can recover some, but I am not holding my breath. I was so upset, wanting to break things, but after today...It doesn't matter.
