People come in and go; sometimes, the person you least expect is the one God has sent for you! Our paths first crossed during 8th grade in Rancho Middle School. We didn't know it back then, but we were both moving around during that time. Although I did move away again, we went to different high schools, and we completely forgot about each other during our days as an adolescent, maybe even a good part of our adult lives. But by the power of social media, we reconnected again. I remember him messaging me one day, "Hey, do you remember me?" I responded, "Yes, of course!" but I didn't. LOL

But as we grow old, we constantly change, continually evolving to be our better selves. Appearances change constantly, but the connection is the most important thing about being in a relationship. We officially met again around 2019, and our connection has strengthened since then. I believe we connected through music, hobbies, traveling, wanting to learn and experience new things, and, most importantly, through God.

Traveling is one of the significant parts of our relationship, where we completely bonded. Our love to learn and experience new things just took over us. Since then, we have been to seven (9) countries and thirteen (13) states together. We plan to travel more with countries on our bucket list, such as the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, and Dubai.
