MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN


Being a helpless romantic at heart, I marvel at loving, passionate moments/stories, be it movies or books… more so real life love stories *winkz* and I’ve heard of one, which I find kinda touching, so sweet that it actually made me abit emo when I was reading it for the first time… come on, I haven’t even met, or rather didn’t even know the blogger yet (I have constantly heard of him through wai ling and CK, but have never met him face to face yet although we have chatted online from time to time) and I’m tearing at his love stories?? Haha… even for the second time… when i asked him about it, he referred me back to those entries, where he had detailed everything from the beginning itself… Despite having read it before, it still gave the same impact and I found myself trying to control that emotion juz in case anyone passes by my room and see me teary-eyed… What?? Goodness, since when did I become such a softy as far as romantic issues are concerned?? Haha… but seriously, it was definitely “something” (ya, ya, peter… I know you’re laughing your head off at me now, aren’t you??)

Even sweeter was his darling, when I read about how she gave of herself sacrificially to the man whom she loves despite him being a tetraplegic... (For more info on this paralysis, check this out, where you can also find explanations on injuries to different levels of the spinal chord) I bet she knew that she would have to sacrifice a lot in order to be with him because of his disability, yet she still went on with the relationship… hats off to her for that!! Generally, if a couple (specifically one who’s seeing each other romantically) consist of an able-bodied and a PWD, I wouldn’t say it’s always the case, but more often than not, it requires a lot of sacrifice from the abled party and courage from both to keep the relationship going… No, I’m not speaking from experience, and I don’t need to be experiencing it in order to share it *winkz* but if you really look at it beyond the surface, don’t you think it’s true?

It was beautiful how they met (go to page 2, entry dated february 2, 2005), even more so for the progress of that relationship… and how from one that’s simply platonic and nothing more than cyber friends, it grew into something more, something beyond the platonic stage… I asked him how did he know that she was THE ONE… “Do you believe in God?” was his question to my question XD And my answer was (and still is) yes, I do, haha… I definitely do!! Anyways, God definitely saw them fit for each other and have worked something out of that bond, bringing them deeper in their relationship with each other through each passing moment… Wuan, if you happen to stumble upon this through your darling, I juz wanna let you know that I really admire you *winkz* keep up the good work yea? And Petes, here's wishing you a fruitful, loving, lasting relationship with Wuan!!

Who says love doesn’t blossom through cyberspace? Who says cyber love seldom succeed? Well, I say it does… look at peter, he's one living proof!! wahaha *winkz* with God, all things are possible, right? *lol* there are probably many more couples out there whose relationship started plainly through the net as mere frens or chat buddies… of course those who were living in the 70's & 80's had their share of stories too, except that theirs might differ in terms of communication since internet was still non-existant, haha… they could probably have been penpals with long distance relationship, hehe… and I happen to also know of one who started off as penpals, ended up as husband & wife, haha *winkz* anyways, although we would have heard about those that did not work out, others might suggest that they have seen couples through their “BIG DAY” til she walks down the aisle towards him and say “I DO!!” so I would say it really depends… on the situation AND on God to bring the right one, haha… and all we need is a little faith in God, trusting Him to work out the best for each of us =) just something to ponder: Hebrews 11:1 ~~> Now faith is being sure of what we hope for, and certain of what we do not see…
