The story begins with our paths running close and parellel by 2 or 3 degrees of separation since we simutanously attended NC A&T quite a few years ago :). As the years continued, our paths and circles of friends, interests, and events crossed, overlapped, and nicely "crashed." After about 10 years of being around and aware of each other, one of us finally accepted a date invitation (we won't say who). And after more years of a "dating life" that has been lengthy but pleasantly progressive with a slow and sure build to a definte end, one of us asked the other to "step out of the box" into marriage. The other said "Yes," of course. And we happily stand in this moment in time. We rest in knowing our union was arranged by our Creator, approved by our families, and confirmed by our ancestors. Time and destination have finally merged our paths into one.
