It has been ages since I last wrote here. I started this blog as it was the in thing back in 2005. Little did I know it will aid me greatly in my mental health as a diary through out the years. As time passes, the objective for this blog was ever changing. It soon became a way for me to reach out to Samantha back in 2007 after I was rejected by her. Again as time passes, it became my treasure trove or pensieve for all my thoughts. Subsequently, the posts got lesser. As I grew older, the notion of blogging seems to be dwindling. Pig and Cat seems to have also stop blogging. These days, I don't think anyone comes by you anymore, even Samantha has stop blogging for awhile. I tried to switch back to another app called Journey, as it is more private.
However, I think you and me have some unfinished business, my friend. Do you want to know why I named you 'Imladris' ? Imladris is the sole haven for the wise and immortal elves living in Middle Earth. Its a haven for all living beings and mortals away from the weariness of the world. It is a place to rest,recharge and to seek counsel. And, my friend, you have been the Imladris of my life, I have rest, cry , smile and manage to find counsel in you. Your archives allowed me to time travel and reach back to the old me, me when I was young, more in tune with my intuition, at the same time, to see the youthful foolishness in my young self. I am already 27 going to 28, my old friend. it has been a decade since we came together. It feels long isn't ? Yet I feel young again, writing to you seems to have reverse time and that I have a good deal left in my finite lifetime.
There is another adventure awaiting us over the horizon, would you come with me on this journey, old friend ?
