Do you believe in fate? I do.
You see, there were a lot of times when we could’ve met before we actually did, but did not. If our story is a soap opera, these are the times when the boy passes by the street and a few seconds after, the girl arrives. All building up to the scene when they finally, finally meet. I want to believe our meet-up story is years in the making, that God has prepared us by letting us grow on our own and when we were ready, He allowed us to cross paths - all in His perfect time.
And it was indeed the perfect time -
We met each other when we were both not looking. We met each other when we were both already content with just ourselves and by ourselves - or so we thought. There’s happiness and solace in being alone - one a person experiences as he grows to love oneself. But there’s also happiness in loving someone apart from oneself, and being loved in return - one that I have found in us.
I still sometimes can’t believe and would sigh (in a good way). Oh what a beautiful, rare thing it is - to fall so effortlessly and naturally in love.
