I want to start this off by saying, the
famous saying.. "Everything happens for a reason."
Fifteen years old is a young age to start dating.
I can now tell, four years later, why my parents wanted me to wait to start dating.
Dating takes time, commitment, and consideration.
Being in a serious relationship for four years, living life as if it was a fairytale.
High School sweethearts, continuing life after high school into college, together.
It was a fairytale, I didn't not I was living.
In a matter of a year, life changes, it takes an intense turn, an illegal U-turn.
Nothing is the same. Everything is erased. Everything is taken away.
Not having the one person in my life that I thought I would marry, is sad.
Although it's sad, I cry tears of joy.
Because It is a lesson taught, a memory well learned, an unforgettable experience
that life offered me.
Yet, at the same time it feels as though I have lost someone very closed to me.
Like you passed away, yet you're standing in front of me.
Like I have never met you, yet I know your whole life.
Life, up to this point has opened up a new chapter.
Well, that's an understatement, more like a whole new book.
A book in a completely different genre.
The storm has passed, and I am not afraid of moving on.
New chapter, new apartment, new city, new friends, new people.
God, God is the reason that life happens.
He has written my story from beginning to end and i'm experiencing what is
suppose to happen,
step by step
day by day
month to month
Year to Year
Everything happens so that better things can happen.
Up to this point...
Life has taken an illegal U-turn.
A U-turn worth taking.
A U-turn that has only brought better things in life.
Everything happens for a reason
