It’s kismet.

From meeting at the bookstore to now celebrating our love in front of God - our story is a miracle in motion orchestrated to show that God does make everything beautiful in time. With us, hours turned into days. Nights turned into mornings. Moments turned into lifetimes. Every hurt place inside of us has been healed by each passing moment together. All the new memories are the pathways that bridge us together. It all started with a swipe right. We met on a dating app and quickly deleted it right away (Shiva deleted right it after he messaged Maricel. The moment he saw Maricel he knew she was the one). On our first date, five hours past by and we both did not want it to end. The next date went on for twelve hours. The next date after that was twenty-three hours straight. It felt like there was not enough time in the day. As we time went on, our love grew for each other. We were there for one another during our lowest of times, for our highest of times, and every moment in between. Every low and high moment - we were steady together with the tie between us becoming more and more strong. Every moment together has defined what love is and imprinted a map towards light in our hearts. All the parallels in our life are not by accident. We are soulmates destined to meet. We are attached by an invisible string designed by a loving God waiting for the right moment for us to meet. In the relationship, that invisible string became strands woven together by a loving God, who made sure it can stand the test of time and can weather all moments. Our love was Ecclesiastes 4:12 in motion - "A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." It’s kismet. ☀️🌙
