Farewell

Today has been an emotional day, meeting rebek on the train and heading over to liverpool for John's funeral. Reminiscing of our old school days and how we three had managed to continue to keep in touch. Emotions ranged from awkwardness waiting outside the church not really knowing what to say, and then the sadness of seeing a very good friend encased within his wooden casket. Fighting back tears as he was carried out after the service, and spending a few seconds at the cemetry adding a handful of dirt. I've said farewell to John on many occasions, but always known we would meet up again. This time I leave him, as the father said, in the arms of god. I wish I didn't have to, but that is how this world is.

I'll miss you mate.
