What day will be mine? I don't know. But that day will come. And then I'll just know. ;)
Almost six years ago, I wrote that in this blog. I had no idea when that day will come, or if it will ever come at all, but I've never lost hope that I will one day find him. You see, when I wrote that, I wasn't in the best time of my life. I needed to assure myself that just because it failed for me once, love will never work for me. Love happens to anyone and that gives me great hope that it will happen to me. I won't say that my hope has never faltered because it did. But my hope was grounded in the knowledge of who God is, steadfastly rooted in His love.

I didn't know then that I've met the man who will change the course of my life forever. For the better. No, for the best. I didn't know then that God had given me the most wonderful surprise of my life! It is crazy to think how we both were utterly clueless as to what's about to happen in our lives from then on. It's beautiful.
And then I knew.
I couldn't tell you the exact day when the realization came through. I guess I've always known, but the knowing was gradual. Everyday, we both filled a puzzle in our lives - until we finally both realized that we never knew what love of my life meant until we found each other. Cheesy as it is, he is the love of my life. And I am his. ♡
And amidst a few tears and a shaking voice, he has finally proven it true, and asked me to marry him. My answer could only be "A thousand times yes."
I love you, Nick. And I always thank God for blessing me with you. Thank you so much for all that you are and all that you do for me. I appreciate everything. For eternity, I will be yours.
