another look back

lobster tony was right in reminding the people at the fabcast that dec 2009 was the end of not just another year but another decade.

when i look at this life called cc, that decade past, the first decade of the new millennium, was marked by cc's departure from home. it was in 2000 cc decided to commit to sharing an abode with a partner, and leaving home for the first time. giant step for someone whose only stint away from home was a flirtation with boarding house life for 2 months.

it was a decade of high growth for the company, after years of mediocre performance. it was a decade of higher studies for cc, a fateful time when cc met mgg for the first time.

it was a decade of climbing higher, leaving comfort zones, achieving much. and when it came to a close, milestones were achieved but sadly the relationship ended.

this new decade is a return to home for cc, in more ways than one. cc is back to his roots, in the residence he grew up in, though it looks all so different now. cc is back to teaching, his first career, though just on a part time basis. cc is back in the area of his university alma mater, a university where he finally confirmed who he was, and people accepted him for what he is.

and cc is slowly opening to the thought of loving again.

it is going back to where cc started yet experiencing it for the first time.
