My Other Half

Having you so far away in Greece has made me realize that your not only my sister but my other half. You being so far away makes me feel like i've lost a huge part of me. So next time you decide to travel the world or explore somewhere new, take me with you. I don't know if i'll be able to handle someone so close to me... being away for so long. So i just wanted to say that ur the best sister ever Everest and I love you, mo ni ife re, 我爱你，사랑해 。♥

Awwww. you're going to make me cry. if i had my way you would have been right here next to me this whole time. SO hurry up and graduate soon, so that we go start taking over the world. Doing the things we've always wanted, going the places we've only dreamed about and not looking back. So please grow up faster so we can start our travels. i miss you too and just so you know you're my bestie and i love you too σ'αγαπώ (s'agapo) i finally learnt how to say it in greek =)

So i did. i cried and cried a little more and then some more. I mean, these weren’t sad tears mind you, they were like happy tears and nostalgic tears. I cried because i miss my other half, i cried because i love my other half and i cried because i wish i was with my other half. The tears felt good. This would be the first time i have cried since being in Greece and i think it was about time. In crying for this i cried about other things as well

I cried because i missed my family and my friends. I cried for what i was missing at home and i cried for what i knew i was gaining here and couldn’t immediately share with those i love. Its a conundrum when you know you’re getting so much from something but at the same time losing out on other things.

I’m so grateful for this message for making me cry. It was exactly what i needed but the whole time i was reading it i wish i could make the request on it happen. i wish i could take away the sad feelings it provoked in my other half. I wish i wasn’t so far away from her. I wish there was some way to be here and there at the same time. I wish she hadn’t felt that she lost a huge part of her with me away while i’m here gaining a new part of me. I wish she could have come with me on this journey, where i get to explore a part of the world and myself. i wish she didn’t have to deal with me being away for this long while i knew i have to be away for this long to be able to deal with myself.

I can’t wait till she can leave and start her own journey in life. I can’t wait for the times when i’m going to be the one writing the message about missing my other half. i can’t wait for when i’m going to be the one  feeling like i’ve lost a part of me. I can’t wait to be the one wanting to be taken on a journey with her. Because when that happens that will mean she’s getting the chance to explore herself, find herself and grow.

Most of all i can’t wait till we’ve both been on our journeys so that we can embark on the journeys we’ll have together. The places we’ll go, the things we’ll see, the things we’ll do, the pictures we’ll take, the stories we’ll have. I can’t wait till we can just go and not look back, together this time. That way we won’t be leaving any part of us behind or leaving each other being.

So this is to you. My other half. My best Friend. The one who completes me. My Sister. You’re the best sister a girl could ever ask for. I love you and i’m telling you in every way i can.

Mo ni ife re

Je t’aime.

Te Amo
