Title-less. Why don't they just remove that little blank space so i don't have to think of any new titles.
天之涯,
地之角,
知交半零落,
人生难得是欢聚,
惟有别离多.
Part of the lyrics to some farewell song which China students used to sing at graduation ceremonies. Many would had find this familiar, because this is mentioned in chapter 6 of our chinese textbook. I love this part especially, as it seems to make the most sense. In our short lifetimes, we can hardly find any friends that we can really pour our hearts to. That deep mutual friendship is rare in today's world. Therefore, what we should treasure most are the moments when we can meet up and gather with our beloved friends, friends who left their deep imprints in us. However, we are bound to go our separate ways after that short-lived moments of reminiscence. After all, 天底下无不散之席...
Simple tune, powerful lyrics that brought out the sorrows in seeing each other off as we continue on our own journeys. Therefore my friends, do treasure every single soul that, by God's work, passed by your life and became a friend of yours. For one of God's greatest gifts is the precious gift of friendship bestowed upon you and that chosen one =)
