From Seville to Single
That about wraps it up.
Corbin, my boyfriend for 22 months and possibly future husband, came here to visit me last week. I knew he was moving on in his mind and we would "have to talk" when he got here. So we did. And it tore me up, but we both agreed that we were doing different things in our lives and we should experience life where we are.
So then, after that discussion, we spent a week together in Barcelona, laughing and having a great time.
We visited all Gaudí´s stuff in Barcelona, the Aquarium, went unicycling with a good size group of unicyclists around the city...
Then, we took a train to the south of spain, to Seville, and spend several days down there. It is so beautiful, all the old buildings...wow. just gotta see it.
He was so camera happy with his new camera and I met up with a couple friends who are living there, one from Los Gatos, and one from my TEFL course that I took last month.
We left last night on the night train, and spent our last night together in our private room with a bed, holding eachother and being rocked to sleep by the moving train. We woke up and watched the sunrise, red and vibrant, over the Mediteranean. It was a precious moment.
And we watched the sunset from the train to the airport at the end of the day, just before we wished eachother a happy life.
Or as he said, "Why should I wish you a happy life? There is nothing to wish for. Just make it happy."
So I will.
So I left.
And I always take the train to and from the airport, but I think sometimes we are just put where we are supposed to be, because this time, for some reason, I took the bus. And I was watching this girl across from me. When the bus got to downtown, I let everyone get off first, and then I noticed a laptop under the chair where that girl was sitting. So I grabbed it and ran down the street to find her, hoping it was hers and someone wouldn´t be really disappointed. When I found her, and held it out to her, the look on her face was all the thanks I needed. She stumbled over her words and looked a little taken aback. Maybe I should have warned her that there are thieves, so be careful, but I guess she learned her lesson in silence. So that is why I took the bus, I guess. So some new tourist wouldn´t start by losing her laptop. And I felt happy.
And then, because I finally have money again, or at least credit, and I just went through a break-up, I went shopping. It always helps.
And I feel ok about this new chapter in my life.
And it means I have more time to think and write and spent time with all of my old friends and people to come into my life.
Big hugs to everyone.
I´m back in Calif. dec. 20.
See ya then,
Louise
