Last Weekend with Conceptia

Most of you have come to know Conceptia as my roomate but what you do not know is that she has been more than that to me...she has become a very dear friend to me and I am so blessed to have crossed paths with her.  This past weekend marked our last weekend together as Conceptia leaves for Orlando, Florida next Friday to journey on.  I am very happy for her but equally sad that she will be leaving Providence and more especially me#chokesup

Conceptia is one of the sweetest and kindest people I've ever come across.  She has done so much for me and I will eternally be grateful for it all.  

Conceptia, thank you for being the person that you are, thank you for your love, kindness, patience,introducing me to your friends, introducing me to New Dimension Church, always driving me around and making my life that much easier but most of all, thank you for your friendship. I pray God will bless you and grant you favour in Orlando, I pray that He will cover you with the blood of His son Jesus Christ, I pray that His angels will always protect you and keep you safe from harm's way.  I wish you good health, peace, joy, prosperity and above it all, I wish you love.  

Conceptia and I at Prospect Park...so peaceful and beautiful

Conceptia acting stoopid#lol...she's going to kill me for this one#lol

In Boston...

This has been a very emotional post for me to type as I HATE goodbyes but I know that God never puts us through ish we can never handle.  People come in our lives for a reason, a season or a lifetime.  I'm choosing Conceptia to be in my life for a lifetime. I got nothing but love for you babe and this is definitely not a goodbye but rather a "see you later", we will definitely keep in touch and I'm going to try visit Florida before heading back to SA and you "MUST" come visit SA when I'm back home#smiles

"Friendship is like a violin; the music may stop now and then, but the strings will last forever."

So long Conceptia. Stay Beautiful. Love you.

Stay Blessed xoxo

Iam sure it cuts both ways- she found a sister in as much as you found a friend in her.
Life is journey and some people we meet along the way make the journey worth traveling and we wish to travel to the end of this journey with them but its not up to us to decide.
Iam sorry she left but iam also glad you found a sister in her.
Like you said, this is not goodbye.
Keep walking- we still love you

It's a blessing to cross paths with such amazing people and an even greater one if they stay in your life,whether near or far.
In saying this,I hope this is a friendship that will last forever.

Conceptia,thank you for being the person that u have been in my gal's life, I know she can be a pain sometimes so it couldn't have been easy lol, jokes.
But yes,I know how much easier her life there has been because of the beautiful soul that you are.
Stay blessed and may you prosper in everything you do.
And cry as much as u need to :)

I had to revisit this post again. Now I am the one saying goodbye to a dear sister I have grown to love so much. As much as I am excited to have family in South Africa now, I will miss our connection and adventures during our experience in Providence. You are amazing and I am going to miss you sooooooooooo much :-(
