When friendship appears...it will warm your winter!

There is someone whom I will like to mention here in my blog, someone special and has always been giving me the encouragement and support, believing in me when I have doubts in myself.

I remember vaguely how we got to know each other, but it was that moment, that crucial moment that I decide to reply his message, and I am glad I did. If I have been too rigid in my thinking, I may have lost this friend.

From the time he messaged me in Friendster, till he follows my blog, till the time we chatted in msn, a friendship has been established unknowingly.

He is the one who got me started painting (he requested to purchase my 1st four paintings when I was not even a skilled painter, with zero knowledge about paintings and he even sponsored for all the materials I bought). But because he believed in me, and I was able to hold the brush with my trembling hands and started painting, and I did not stop at just four. I never believe I will be able to paint those beautiful pictures on the canvas boards, although they may not be compare to Picasso, Van Gogh or my fav Dali.

He is the one who showed care thru his little gestures and assuring words when he sensed I am feeling down. And I still remember the times when I was too shy to meet up with him but nevertheless, we still managed to exchange Christmas gifts.

And I love that book he passed me, “Warrior of Light”. Even now, whenever I have doubts in myself, I read this book over and over again. And he really know what books will interest me.
Recently on my bday, he and Lenca had gotten me something useful again when he learnt of my recent interest in photography.

And I can’t thank you enough, Claudiu. Hopefully I will be able to tag along when you return Romania, I will love to visit your hometown and take a pic with you, sipping some hot chocolate under the shower of snowflake!
