Wherever you are, I will always be there for you, through changes, through years, through seasons, through lives.
I HEAR GOSSIPS, BUT I NEVER SHARE.
YOU MAY GO SHOPPING WITH YOUR BEST FRIENDS, SHARING GOSSIPS AND SECRETS ON THE WAY TO SHOPS, I WAS THERE LISTENING WITH CURIOSITY, BUT I NEVER SHARE IT TO ANYONE. INTERESTING OR BORING.
I HEAR STORIES, BUT I NEVER COMMENT.
You may meet you neighbours, talking about the fancy shirt you have just bought today on the way back home, I was there listening with happiness. But I never comment. Good or bad.
I HEAR BUSINESS, BUT I NEVER TELL.
You may discuss how much profits was made last year with your colleagues on the way back to office, I was there listening with proudness. But I never tell. Billions or thousands.
I HEAR CRIES, BUT I NEVER COMFORT.
You may visit someone you’ve lost in the past with your families, recalling and crying about those old memories you had, I was there listening with sadness. But I never comfort.
