"When you come to the edge of all the light you know, and are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen: there will be something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly."

Yuki

July 24, 2008

When I was still in college, I stayed in a pad just a walking distance from my school. I was alone in my pad and I’m the only student in the building. It is a six-storey building and my unit was at the second floor. 

I had this neighbor at the next door who was a dancer in Japan.  When she arrived home from Japan, she bought this dog, a Chinese Chow Chow,  named “Yuki” who had been a pet to everyone in the building. Yuki came as a little puppy with sharp, loud barks at night which echoes in the whole floor. He has a blue tongue, a pair of black round eyes and brown shiny fur. I adore Yuki so much because a dog like him is rare in the town. In fact, he was the first and only Chinese Chow Chow in the city’s registry.

After few months, Yuki grew up and looked like a frightening lion because of his fuzzy look. And his roars became louder and deafening. Outsiders and visitors who wanted to go upstairs really had hard time to pass through the second floor because of Yuki’s frightening roars and lion-like appearance. Often, people mistakenly believe we have a lion in the building. Funny but cute, isn’t he? Yuki became residents’ friend and security  guard since his favorite pasttime was lying on the top of the stairs. And when people see him there, they hesitate to go up and would rather choose to stay outside.

This is just a simple offer to my favorite pet, “Yuki”. I missed him so much! I’m hoping to see you again Yuki when I get home.
