Daneric's Perspective:
Long long ago in a far away land called Arkadelphia, Arkansas there lived a beautiful lady named Emily. She was the finest lady in Mashonaland, but had to leave because the world would be a better place if she graced us with her presence.
I had first met her through her brother-in-law and sister while doing my graduate studies at Henderson State University. We became friends for awhile and I enjoyed her company and our random conversations about worldly civilizations and ancient cultures. We enjoyed a lot of tea and a lot of early morning walks to the gym while I was doing my thesis. Before graduating I kissed her and therefore she had kissed the finest Fijian in the Pacific Ocean. There's been a lot of travels, a lot of cherished memories and its always silliness and laughs with her. I'm excited to show her off to the family in Fiji and for friends and our families to finally meet.

Emily's Perspective:
A decade ago, a man met my family. I had known him but had not noticed him. However, that all changed when I saw him shirtless at the lake getting along with the people I love the most. A year later and I had successfully captured his attention. During that year we had traveled to Memphis and Pensacola with our friend group, we worked together, worked out together, had breakfast and tea together, and even performed in a show together. Friendship changed slowly into a relationship just before he graduated and had to leave. We did the distance and it was worth it. Every day with Daneric has been a new adventure and I’m looking forward to more. I am excited for our families to meet and for our friends to see where this incredible man comes from.
