Touched to tears

I met up with a long time friend and his wife yesterday after he knew that I had ventured out on my new job.

We had a long discussion about how we can work on his project. The discussion went smoothly and as we were leaving, something he said caught me off guard and I found myself touched to tears and was trying hard to fight back tears from my eyes in front of him and his wife.

He told me that he remembered what I said to him back in 1993 when he was starting out in his business; I had told him that had he needed my help in his new venture, I would be his first customer. And now, years later, he is saying that to me to show his support.

I was really touched and thankful for his support and friendship.
