Sentimentality
"There is another day before the LAST month of 2006" said the emcee in a radio music program in a sentimental voice last night. Later, she played some pieces of music, most of which were love songs. I had long passed the age of having a love affair but I found the lirics and melodies were beautiful.
One of the songs was seasons in the sun. Some words went like this: We had joy,we had fun, we had seasons in the sun..Everytime I was down,you should always come around and get my feet back on theground….. It was already close to mid-night. In another several minutes, it would be the last month of 2006! My 2006. What have I done for you? I lay on the bed and couldn’t go to sleep.
Looking at the moonlight filtering through the window coutain and mosquito net and softly spreading itself on the quilt, I appreciated myself for building myself such a snug and warm bed of flowers. The day before, I made a significant adjustment to the layout of the furnishings. Pretty and cozy. I used to dread the nightfalls but now they look so tender. In the daytime, it’s equally magic—-Leaving the door open, you can’t see me at the desk or on the bed but the fresh air and sunshine.
Now, it is already the last month in 2006. The wonderful melody is still ringing in my ears. Yes, we had joy and fun, we did have seasons in the sun. You did come to my help when I was down. Thank you, those I have seen or not, for your trust and care. Long live our friendship.
