Dedicated to my godbrother & best friend, Kenny
Recently, I’ve grown rather close with my godbrother, Kenny. We have had many similarities in terms of durimg our childhood times and we too shared almost the same interests (only problem was he’s way way much smarter than I am =P). As many of you have known, I’m an only child and at times I had always felt lonely and wished that I had at least a brother or sister to play with. I do have my cousins whom we grew up playing together but still there’s something amiss as I noticed I will no way receive love and care the way biological siblings are and I know that I could never get the care the way I’ve wanted it to be. And I don’t think they could give me the care and love that I wished for. I’m very blessed that I finally have a godbrother whom I can play, share our thoughts with and care the way other siblings cared for them. The night on a weekday where my actual birthday fell, he treated me dinner at Bernard’s in Centrepoint Bandar Utama. After dinner, he did something that made me really shed tears of movement (yeah even for a guy embarass to say), he wrote me a 4 pages long letter..from the time we knew each other through MI till the present..and it was so heartfelt because what he wrote was genuinely sincere. No one has ever written any letter of such to me in my life. I really couldn’t control my emotions after that.
I just wanna say thank you gor, for everything that you’ve done for me. I appreciated every bit of knowledge you taught me, guided and supported me when I was really down. We may have had several minor misunderstandings in the past but to me, they’re all long forgotten..and I hope that you & I can be the best of brothers and pals forever =)
P.S.: This touching story is hopefully not misinterpreted as you-know-what relationship. So you people who are reading, please don’t be narrow-minded and think otherwise ah!

Leon, my dearest brother - you and I are like kindred spirits sharing this journey called ‘life’ together. We ‘click’ just like that without much effort, and it is rare to find a friend like that - you are really my one in a million. How often is it that a guy finds such a good pal and brother in another guy? Guys hardly ever enjoy such great guy friendships, unlike girls.
I do treat you as if you are my real brother, and I will continue to be the big brother that you’ve always wanted. I’ve enjoyed the fun times as well as the more serious sharing sessions. It doesn’t matter what we do really!
As for the 4-page letter, I meant every word I said. And as long as you continue to consider me as you gor gor, I will always be there for you no matter what.
As for misunderstandings, the test of true friendship is whether it survives… I think we are doing perfectly fine
I am really moved by this entry, and yes we will be best pals and brothers forever :). As for what other people think, who cares?
