Graduation Day

Truly it’s a nice feeling & experience when you express love to another individual. It’s a lot more wonderful when that love is being paid back twice as much. Everyday is much different than yesterday. The world around you seems to have a brighter color. A burden has been lifted off your shoulder. It’s such a nice thing to be attached to someone, an attachment beyond friendship. There’s a sense of accountability and sort of ownership. You always want to be updated of the other’s whereabouts, and both of you send “sweet-nothing’s” every now & then. Pimples miraculously disappear. Suddenly, people notice a certain glow in your face. There’s an extra jolt of energy left despite a very tiresome day because you will be meeting that special person after work. You plan ahead but with your partner in mind. I guess I have graduated from singleness.
“Love moves in mysterious ways.” The least likely person seems to be the one really interested in you. We tend to look so far beyond, when in fact the one that is for us is sitting right under our nose. When that person steps out in the open, we are caught off guard and we are unprepared to give a reply. I was emotionally tired and in the brink of giving up. I was hoping for something to develop from another friendship, but when this situation came to me, I thought long and hard because an opportunity to love is right in front of me. It was a tough decision. When it was made final, a gush of love, so intense, it washed off the hurts and pains I have been carrying deep inside of me. Knowing that you already made a connection to another individual allows you to forgive the people in the past and move on with head held high because you have someone beside you to tread this new journey of life.
