The Story of My Life in Your Name..

While sifting through items found in my wallet, I came across a piece of folded paper.

As I unfolded it, the contents brought back memories..

It goes..

Jaded was the life I knew then and love was real in dreams only.
Emptiness filled my thoughts, the void in my heart left me distraught, lonely.
All else in me was lost and I was left with but hope that this test shall pass.
Never in my life have I felt so down, asking why I can't have what everyone else has.
Nothing seemed so right for then, all I had was hope and faith.
Everything that happens in this world happens for a reason, this I believe so.
Chances are so rare in this lifetime that when one comes, we grab it and never let go.
A single moment happens that changes us forever and we are never the same.
Right then and there, we see why we were born, why God put us on this earth.
Many things have happened to me in this life, many things have not.
Every hope I had, every wish I made, every prayer I asked for on thing I wanted in life.
Love, I never hoped for anything else in this world, just that somehow love find me.
So many times I have looked for it, so many times it has eluded me.
Endless has my search been, still I haven't found the love that I have been looking for.
Right at the moment I almost gave up on love, I found you.
Reality hit me hard then, you don't go looking for love, it finds you.
All the while I thought I was looking for love, when all the while I was looking for you.
Now that I have you, my life has never been so wonderful for in you, love found me.
Ours is a love that's true, a love that knows never to give up, a love that believes in forever..

I remember writing this, 5 years ago.. for Jeanne.

To this day, I still keep this piece to remind me..

The story of my life is written in her name..

Celebrating 5 years.. February 1, 2004

It seems like yesterday when we first met. Seeing you for the first time, I was nervous as hell.
I remember then, I couldn't look you straight in the eye.. I never knew why.
I remember looking towards the city lights beyond the horizon on that cold Saturday night.
It was not the cool mountain breeze I felt that night, but the warmth of our embrace.
My hand in yours.. your hand in mine.
At that point in my life, it was the bravest I've been.
Saying that one line which I knew would forever change my life..
"Will you be mine..?"

Here we are 5 years later.. husband and wife.
The rest is history as they say but everything would not have become possible..
If on that fateful night had I not been brave enough to ask..
If you did not have the courage..

to say YES.

To Jeanne..
Thank you, here's looking forward to the rest of my life with you.

Love you wife :D

Always me and you!
