The first time we met was through a mutual friend, during the spring gospel choir concert at Florida State University. At the time we shared nothing short of a curt conversation. We were not expecting to share in anything other than simple hellos and goodbyes for the times to follow. However, by divine intervention, we came across each other again at a more opportune time. We looked into each other’s eyes with an unspoken sense of “this is not the same person I met over a year ago.” From that moment we decided to pursue a friendship that developed into a loving relationship.
