Prohhorov: So far yet so near
By Gina Prohhorov
Great potentials
Today I write about somebody we can call “Hosty.” No, she is not a guest relations officer. She works as a marketing officer of a regular company. But she chose to be far from home to work.
When she is in the office, she gets occupied with her fieldwork but when she goes home, she gets occupied with the love of her life.
It is totally different to be so in love and yet be so far. The memories keep one strong. The memories of each and every moment together are so vital and detailed.
You know how that is when one thinks of that special moment, reminiscing the color of his shirt, the smile on his face, the touch of his hand, the hug and that last kiss. Ayayay!
I can imagine Hosty’s face at night, alone in her bed. Grinning . . . smiling . . . but ending up with tears rolling down her cheeks. All because those moments were in the past: If only . . . I wish . . . I dream . . . one more moment . . . These must be the lines running through her mind.
Do you know how many people just imagine hugging their loved ones? Many. You know how many troubled love relations
there are? Many, too. What an irony, isn’t it?
Do not wait to be too far, to be near. There are many who go through the hassles of everyday life forgetting the human touch that each one needs.
How many couples in a car still get to have a pleasant conversation? Or is it just the usual family obligations that become the issue of the day? How many couples even just take a walk holding hands?
How many lovers spend more time arguing than enjoying each other’s company? How many foul words come out from one’s
mouth than those sweet “I love you’s”? How many “thank you’s” are neglected because more “why’s” have to be answered?
Aaaaaaaaaah, do not wait to be far. Many couples get to be so sweet days before they know one of them is leaving for abroad.
Worst of all is when one hears that one is sick, then the realization comes. For those who do have their loved ones beside them, cherish those moments. Do multi-tasking when it comes to love. Like?
Well, intertwine your hands when you sit watching TV together. Put your feet on your lover’s lap when you are watching the news. Reach out for his feet while you are taking dinner. Kiss him not only once, but twice. That means that if you used to kiss him five times a day, you make it 10 times a day now.
For those with loved ones living faraway, remember all those moments that can light up your day. You can still send messages through text or letters but make sure you send more positive, sweet, loving notes rather than hurting words that you will only regret.
