Have I mentioned that I am the luckiest girl in the world? I don’t always remember that but today was one of those days when one wonders why people complain at all. My dearest friends organized a “Bon Voyage” BBQ for me and I couldn’t me happier and more scared. Having everyone come out with me by the pool, chat, joke and gossip was a hell of a way to spend one of my last days in the U.S. My friends and family keep telling me to quit calling it my last anything but it certainly feels like it. Good friends, good food and a heck of a warm summer day made today special. I am scared to think that I may never share a day like this with all my friends again but I have to keep reminding myself that things will work out for the best and that here, in Mexico or China my friends will still be my friends and love me no less based on my location. Things certainly do seem easier when you’re in the same zip code but they say love has no boundaries and I’d like to think that’s true.
