Now and till Forever


Fairy tales, movies, poetry, horoscope readings… the connotation of “The One” is almost everywhere you look.  But do people really stop to contemplate its meaning? What is it? What is finding “The One”?
Is it being happy with someone? Is it falling in love? Is it marriage? Is it having a family? Is it settling down? Is it everyday life? Or is it a combination of both?
Some people pass through life never finding “The One”, and others think that every relationship they stumble into is with “The One” until they either grow out of it or get their hearts broken.  Some try to make it happen by hook or crook, even if it means erasing their own personalities and stepping on their dignity, and others avoid it out of fear or simply attachment to the single life.
No matter what the situation is, no one could understand how much of a blessing it is until they actually find “The One”. 
I once heard that if you want someone to suffer, wish them love. 
I’m still trying to make sense of that! Love is so many things, including suffering.  Its what makes us get out of bed on a cold and raining morning, yet also keeps us depressed; it is what makes us do things we never though possible, yet hinders us from others; its what brings out both the best and the worst in us… its so complex.
Excuse the philosophy Mr. Youssef, but I want to say it out loud:
I have found “The One” and he is you!
The 28th of May, 2011 marked the first day of the rest of my life… our lives! 
Other days might have been important like the 27th of June 2009 was the day I graduated from college, or even in the future that the 10th of September, our scheduled wedding day or the day we have our first child.  However, I know that none will be like the 28th of May.  It was the day we sealed our bond in front of society, law, our families and loved ones, and most importantly, in front of God.
The wedding party might be important, but our true marriage has begun.  I wish that the rest of your life will be long and filled with nothing but love, happiness, success, abundance, wealth, power, children, and satisfaction with me.
This is to Youssef Abdulmawla… my prince, my love, my husband!
