for the nth time...

We've had a million of these conversations before-- talking about the past scenarios wherein we would've met each other sooner.. been together sooner.. loved each other sooner. Since it was a common friend who'd introduced us and fixed us up, the subject of conversation has often circled around the numerous past chances that we would've come to know each other. She was persistent-- this common friend of ours--and has the honor of being the first person who's ever been convinced we're perfect for each other (she pushed this idea for about a year or so). She created so many opportunities for us to meet. She presented us with one too many chances, actually... (thank God she still kept the faith!)...

One was during our many gimmicks with our Uno friends. One was during the Mr. Law School pageant. Another was during the celebration of his successful thesis defense. Another was during Li's last night here. So many would-have-been encounters that never happened. As if fate had other plans-- that we would meet under another set of circumstances-- circumstances that would let us know the other in the best possible light... to have us meet each other on our best possible days, in the best possible ways...

As if this was all meant to be. Wrapped neatly into life's best little packages...

I love you. And I love the way you came into my life.
