| INFINITE |
Dear Mpumz,
It is always said that in life some come for a season and some for a reason. In our instance, I can only hope it is for infinite seasons and endless reasons.
It was back in 2010 when I met you for the very first time. We were both young, unmarried, no kids, no employment, fresh out of school with a bag full of dreams and hopes.
Was it love at first sight? I cannot exactly recall but I don't think so. We were both shy at first and being Christian's of the same faith there was this irrational fear that one would be judged if we were to honestly share our shortcomings, but like any other relationship, we have matured and grown so beautifully into our friendship, or what I would like to call it, our sisterhood.
In dark days you have consistently been my light, in somber rainy days you have taught me to dance in the rain whilst never failing to make me laugh, in good days you have been there to gallop under the sunshine with me, in reaching milestones and pinnacles, you have been there to cheer me on and celebrate with me, when I have been wrong you have lovingly called me out, when I've been right you've likewise acknowledged with a warm smile.
People have come into my life and left without a trace, however, in my heart I have found your footprints which have been etched and are living proof that you have always been there and so consistent in your love for me.
In you I have found a sister, a confidant, a best friend, a mentor, a healer, an angel without wings and one who will love me without reservations.
Thank you for staying consistent in an ever changing world, thank you for loving me for who I am in an ever opportunistic and hungry world and thank you for taking my heart and caring for it as your own,
Countless as the sands of the sea, is my never failing love for you...
