Companions

I found myself tempted so much to stay longer here in my hometown - like half to a year. I see so many reasons to stay but when I think of Ivan, he's actually the most important reason of why I should go back as planned. Both are heavy to consider but the latter seems to give me more peace of mind. Once we had been separated for a year and a half, and a married friend said 'at least we have each other' though they came from different and far distant countries - now I realize how crucial it is to be with each other. We're companions to each other on the journey. We need each other to face this life together - with someone who knows you and whom you can talk to in depth. I find it so funny and yet overwhelming when he narrated to me how he found this church sign with the writing.
