"Nothing Gold Can Stay" was a poem written by Robert Frost in 1923 (see pic below). The poem is about how as things grow older they lose their innocence. Like how when a leaf in the fall turns brown and dies or how when a child turns into an adult they mature and lose the innocence they had a a young child. The poem says "nature's first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold". This means that when something is first born, they are born clean and pure, which is the hardest thing to be in our time.
Some say this is ironic, as gold is one element we know which never tarnishes and highly valued :-). IMHO, youth, beauty, and life itself are some of the examples which won't last forever. But innocence could stay (although rarely), and friendship can definitely stay.
We have been staying in WXC net-friend's home and their vacation condo for 7 weeks, more than double the time they stayed in our place. During the time, we had some long walks and talks. I felt that I have found not only a friend to share views on life and current matters, but a big sister that I always wished to have. To me, this is "gold" and the friendship I will keep and treasure.
On the other topic, we decided to stay put in SF on the "big day" which will be watched by the whole world, and pray for peace. Amen.

Met my childhood best friend, and found little in common, 不如不见还一直挂念着。
When one moves on to the next stage of life, the previous cycle stopped.
