Life-long love

TGIF ka, everyone!

Once upon a time (over 43 years ago), 15 friends of mine and I went together to Rayong and stayed with a friend's family for 3 days. 'Those were the days' when we didn't think much but have fun together, eat most delicious food offered to us, and visit new places, including Koh Samed, when it was almost deserted!

Rayong has been in our hearts as our happy beginning!

The deep love nurtured from the trip has stayed on as a key factor to bond our group. Some of us visited this family basically in time of sorrow!

In time of happiness and when all of us are quite mobile, 14 of us were able to join the trip...either as a one-day or 3 -day trip as seen convenient.

Looking back, each of us has had lots to recall and share so with my friends' wonderful cooperation, each came up with a paragraph or a poem about their time 4 decades ago. We managed to produce the first part of our electronic booklet, integrating the paragraphs  into a storytelling piece of our Rayong memorable moments.

We performed a little รดน้ำขอพร, feeling so loved by the blessings of Jaejae (all the elder sisters.....my friend is the youngest and is about 24 years younger than her eldest sister!) Jaejae repeatedly asked us to visit more often (Isn't it so nice to hear the invitations ka?)

Then, each read out loud a page of the booklet we've prepared. It was another special time as we all cherished our fond memories, sharing what we could recall about Jaejae (and about the late Mom and brother) food, fun, and friendship.

We learned later from our friend that the two activities touched them a whole lot (we were thrilled too!) and that this was a special occasion for them to feel so loved.

So many new happy and touching moments followed throughout....and yes, we were so very pampered and spoiled!

Like my friends and our Rayong family, I couldn't feel happier. It was meaningful and memorable. Whatever we've done (and those who couldn't join in) is the work of hearts ....the little project we created, driven by longstanding genuine love from both ends.

Our Rayong family said their invitation is a lifetime one! Now you know where I can always visit to be spoiled!

Our Rayong family has always offered a touch of heart and will continue to hand us many more happy beginnings ka!

Cheers!
