Because you were not there

'How many people and who did you go to Tibet with?'

'Oh just 2 of us, me and my girlfriend.'

'Hmm... I didn't know you went with your girlfriend. You didn't show any of your girlfriend's photo in your facebook album, so I thought you went alone...'

'......'

'So did you go to Everest Base Camp? It was fantastic isn't it?!! Part of the highlight of my trip to Tibet was staring at the peak of Mt. Everest right in the eye! The splitting headache, pounding heart throughout the sleepless nights, the bone-chilling cold, the hygiene hell of the toilets, all these hardship that I had to endure were all worthwhile -- just for that fleeting moment of seeing eye to eye with the majestic Everest. I'm sure you felt the same as I did!!...'

'Erm... I didn't go to Everest Base Camp...'

'Huh?? I can't believe you! You went to Tibet but didn't go to Everest Base Camp?!! I thought you are as kiasu as I am!! It's one of the must-see in Tibet you know?! What a waste!'

'My dear, I know it's the must-see. But what to do?! Because you were not there to plan the trip with me...'

就这么一句，包含了少许遗憾，少许伤感。遗憾的是我们所曾经共同拥有的梦想实现时，身边的人却早已替换了；伤感的是我们都各自身在现任爱人身边，但一颗心，却还感觉空洞无比，就好像西藏无限的空间，无尽的天涯。
天涯的尽头到底在哪儿？人家说天涯的尽头就在心里。我想，那是因为重要的不是实际距离有多远，而是心的距离有多近吧。。。
