So, last year, something sad happened to me: my best friend died of Leukemia.
Since I am an English undergraduate student with an emphasis on Editing, I decided then for my graduation project to collect some of my conversations with him and editing into a book. The idea of doing it, not only is it painful, came from the purpose of doing something that would actually mean something to me and that it would be a way of always remembering him.
One time, he tried committing suicide and after he came back from the hospital we talked about it and I asked him how he could do something to me like that and not let me at least say goodbye to him. He told me I would eventually find out about the incident, in case he had been, let's say, "successful" with it. Then I asked him if that was it, if I would never seen him again in case he actually had died, and then he told me:
"ah não amado... para sempre é longe demais;
sempre tem uma hora que a gente se encontra
(...)
lembra de mim que eu vou estar sempre pensando em você!"
Which would be translated to:
"oh no my dear... forever is far too much;
there is always a time when we will meet
(...)
remember me for I will always be thinking of you!"
It's conversations like these that makes this project even harder to complete, but still, even more valuable!
