The phone call

What do you do when the only thing you really want to do on new years is hang out with your best friend... who is on the other side of the world and who is probably depressed and won't talk to you?
You accept this assignment is what you do!




Sat: Hi! It’s me.
Me: Hi! Where have you been? I haven’t heard from you in over a month. Are you okay?
Sat: I know. I’m sorry. I’ve been busy... riding horses... and learning to love me more.
Me. Really? You have? Is it working?
Sat: Yeah, I think it is. I’ve learnt to forgive and accept me. I’ve learnt to embrace my true self, and not be held back by fear and negative thoughts. I’ve learnt to connect with my creativity and find self-expression. And best of all I've found peace of mind.
Me: Wow. That’s so good... I’m so happy for you, Sat.
Sat: I can teach you how, too.
Me: Really? I’d love that.
Sat: Also, I’m going to take you up on your offer and meet you for a holiday in Bali.
Me: You are? Oh that's wonderful!
Sat: Yeah, I can’t wait! It will be so much fun. Maybe we can also talk about starting up on online interactive community arts project together.
Me: Okay!
