"Was it worth the trip?"
You have no idea how much.
For you, I fill the temporary void of loneliness in this brief period of your life in which you don't have someone else's affection. And I'm happy to do so... because, for me, the experience means so much more.
With all of the uncertainty in life, I hold very dear what little truth I have found... and in this case, there are two things of which I am certain.
First..
With each passing year, each time I love, with each experience, with each smile and embrace, I become more sure of the fact that life is a series of moments, and that the people with whom those moments are shared are temporary... and the moments themselves are the only things which truly endure.
Second..
In your life, you will meet many good people. A few of those people will be of an exceptional quality, and you will be fortunate enough to get to know them. And, of those, with a very select few you will share something special..
Finding people of a high quality is rare enough; finding people with a good heart is rarer still. Being able to experience something special is a chance too rare and too precious for me to pass up. Yes, it was worth traveling thousands of miles to see it for myself, to share even just a few of those fleeting moments. And it was exactly as I pictured. A person's quality doesn't change, no matter the type of interaction.. The core of who they are is apparent in their actions, whether they are thousands of miles away or walking by your side. It shines in life... in their eyes, in their smile, in the warmth of their touch.. but the true quality of a person will not diminish with distance.
You are of those exceptional quality of people. And meeting you was incredible. For me, I am lucky to have had the chance. That's why it's never goodbye. I'll be here for as long as you need me, for as long as you are lonely. Someday, you'll find someone to love and care for, and you won't need me anymore. And as for me, I am just happy to have met even a few good people in this cold, desolate world, to have shared that fleeting, meaningful moment.
