Turns out that your life partner can live just around the corner from you and you may never know it...until you do! Karl and I met when we were both still in school. We started running together during the school holidays, but we lost contact for a while. I would sometimes run into him on my way to the bus and he always greeted me with such a beaming smile and infectious excitement that I couldn't help but be excited to see him too. We reconnected when I ran into him on my way to the bus station and invited him to go to a Youth event with us. It was from this day that our friendship blossomed. Our encounters after that faithful Youth event were priceless. We went many rendezvous, but I wouldn't say dates because in that moments I gained a friend, my best friend in fact. Someone I knew would be there for me no matter what. But soon after I saw that Karl was determined to make me his...so determined he gave me his new GTI to drive after I just got my license. So just to test his patience, I may have bumped the mirror off and gave it a sexy dimple...Lol. "Love is patient..." isn't it?!? We later named the car 'Je'taime' Karl somehow knew that the way to my heart was through chocolates. Every Monday I would bring her chocolate custard cups from a shop around the corner from his job and we would sit in the car and talk about everything and nothing at the same time. This is why the car was named Je'taime. I think that as early as life allowed us to meet. Timing is everything. God first had to mold us and shape us to be in the form and the people that we were so that we would be a right fit for each other. So that we also knew how to grow together and be more compatible in our walk together through the journey of life.
I remember my mother explaining to me the day she decided to marry my father, it was when they got stuck on the side of the road and in the middle of nowhere on the way to his banquet. She remembers so vividly how at that moment, she decide he was the one because, despite his attire, he took his jacket off and changed the tyre. She saw someone who would provide and protect her and never leave her stranded. For me, it was the day Karl
The first time Kirsten and I met I was intrigued by her smile and the way she carried herself. I knew at that moment that this was someone I’d love to spend a lot more time with and I was blessed to do so with our running expeditions. Every time I'd bump into her I would make sure to keep the conversation going for as long as I could just so I could be in her presence a little while longer. There was never a dull moment with her. To this day, I still believe, she still gives the best hugs and changes the atmosphere of the room with her presence. She made me fall in love with the person she is and I decided that’s who I wanted to spend all my life with. To date, we’ve been through so much together and there’s no one else I would want to share all those memories with...I look forward to a lifetime of memories to be made together, as long as we both shall live.
