sign of peace. Well it has a deeper meaning. My soul recognises your soul, I honour  the light, love, beauty ,truth and kindness within you because it's also within me, in sharing these

things there is no distance and no difference between us we are the same, we are one. And there you go the true meaning of nah-mas-tay. Ever since I was a young child my best friend Oliver was along side me through everything, we had a very strong connection just as children. We were usually called the "odd" or "weird" kids in school but we didn't care. I had him and he had me and that's all that mattered. Sadly the world was going to get the best of us. Oliver passed on to the other side to a heart condition called the Congenital heart defects. Many children die from this from birth but he managed to fight longer for his life. They said he could have lived till adulthood but "something" went wrong, another way of saying we have no idea what we were doing. Ever since he had passed on I was in great woe and misery. I wouldn't eat for days till the point that I had to go to the hospital. I couldn't sleep it was all a nightmare for me. It felt like someone ripped apart parts of me and i was slowly falling to pieces. Have you ever head the phrase " the eyes are windows if the soul" well that's exactly true. After I was out of the hospital strange things started happing. I would leave my door wide open and when I came back it would be completely locked or when I wrote a word on paper certain words or letters would be gone as I looked away. It was really abnormal and appalling. I didn't want to tell my father because he surely wouldn't believe me, so I Kept quiet. I wasn't  sure why this was happening until one day I was taking one of my long showers and when I tiptoed out there was a message on the mirror saying
"I'm still here -Oli". You would've thought that I would be happy to see this but I thought this might have been a cruel joke by my sister but no it wasn't. I was in denial and scared, he was there and all the clues added up. So instead I embraced the truth, he was still with me.
