A friend
I had a friend who wanted an ordinary life
No shining medals, no fancy degrees, no huge salaries
Just being able to float in the sea of "Just enough"
"What's your idea of a good day?" I asked
"One were I have water, food, and am not bleeding" she replied
I was amused but repulsed at the same time
Still she was a good friend
Her kindness made you believe in angels
That heaven is somehow within reach
I wanted something different
I wanted the stars in my eyes
I wanted everyday to be novels in character
She died a few years ago.
Something was wrong with her liver
She wasn't able to finish college
At the funeral I asked her brother
What was her last words?
What was her life all about?
And he replied
"She said "Scatter my ashes in the sea. Don't grieve but forget about me'"
A chill ran down my spine
