Re: Abilities
Sometimes, it's really about what you can do, and not about what you can't.
Last night was Babus' last night in town. Right now, he's back in college. You know, I heard that Linlin and Tina get really sad when Kevin goes back to college, and I guess I kinda feel the same way sometimes.
When we were coming home from Barnes and Nobles (I was picking up Prince of Tennis Vol. 23), I asked him if he wanted to do something that night. He said, "Laser tag's fine."
That night, I really hesitated about calling a few people to come with us. I suddenly thought it wasn't something I needed to do anymore. I suddenly thought it wasn't something I I COULD do anymore.
I think it might seem strange to some people, but I've felt out of the loop for ages now, ever since I got back last summer from WM. I thought that somehow, people didn't need my help anymore, so I withdrew from gathering people to do fun things every once in a while. I thought it was just something I couldn't do anymore. Motivation sunk down, and when I had an idea, it just floated in my mind and never left it.
....But then I wondered. If I wasn't going to organize Laser Tag for Babus, no one else would, and he wouldn't be with friends on his last day in town. Would I be happy with that?
No, I would regret it.
So I picked up my phone and started calling people. The words of "Do you want to hang out tonight?" flew out of my mind every single time as if I haven't said it in ages, as if it was yearning to come out in a while. It was short notice, so a lot of people couldn't make it, but it's okay. I'm glad that there were people who came with us.
And we had fun.
I guess this is the way I truly enjoy life- fun, smiles, and friendship, and being a part of it all.
No matter what.
....It's been a while, hasn't it? Hello, it's nice to see you again.
