Two more weeks and it's full 3 years since we plunged into this spring river.. well, look where it has brought us.. nice picture, huh? :) me think so, too.
you know, some people said, it takes more than just having seemingly beautiful happy, smiling photos together.. it is the ups and downs, the strangling, the tears, crazily hilarious laughter, and most importantly, heavenly chemistry that sparks off wild fire between each other.. all these and more that actually makes the picture perfect. :)
this is Ben @ Ebenezer @ Zhang Song, a pretty boy.. MY pretty boy :) i thank God everyday that He has let us met with each other. i won't say any insanely beautiful love phrases just to leave all of you giddy.. but, i think he deserves all the praises that any good partners are due.
the first time i met him was in our cell group in TARc hostel. Wilson (cell leader) asked him and Eugene out to join us, since they were also new. We went there to visit Patricia, as she was in the process of planning to move out of hostel.
imagine the scene, dark night.. group sitting at the little garden in between the buildings.. and two guys walked down.. and here the spotlight came.. shed light on this seemingly 'weird' creature. (hehe) the first thing that crossed my mind was.. "oh, man.. i soooooo won't get a boyfriend like HIM!!! oh, no i won't!"
jeng, jeng, jeng.. that's why pastor Gloria cautioned, "NEVER say NEVER". haha.. he was this spiky haired, four eyed, dark guy with baggy clothes... and he walked weird! (sorry, babe.. hehe) well.. and that night, we played a game.. and we were suppose to hold hands in a circle.. talking about A.W.K.W.A.R.D. well, what a special tryout. we even get to hold hands even before we knew each other! scary, but special. and scary. haha.
long, long, long, long, long after our first encounter.. i almost totally forgotten about this fella. life went on as usual.. and we started bumping into each other at church. i attended the 2nd service, and he was in the 1st service.. so the only time we ever saw each other were of those split of seconds.. with a small courteous wave. NO TALKING. just smile. and a hand wave. finish.
and..... one fine day.. this guy suddenly popped up in me mind. well, at that period of time, i was having a hard time.. as i was hard crushed by the previous relationship. i was a little desperate, but since God was in control,.. i prayed. "God, show me the right person for me at the right time.. i wish that he'd be someone..lalalalalalala... (macam wish list lah..), amen." all the things i'd hope to see in me future partner.
it's a cruel reality, but after the previous relationship.. i was so heart broken, i find it hard opening my heart and yet, still hoping for a miracle that i'll meet someone special someday. ironic, yes i know. and then.... he just came into the picture, just like that... without me inviting him in. i still remember having him in my thoughts the whole day while i was doing me revision before the exams.. hairwired, but true.
meeting him the first time after a long, long time was really a different experience. before the chinese new year, i took the initiave to get his number from Wilson.. (sad, but true.) it's not that i'm desperate or anything.. but i was actually very curious about how i feel and think towards this guy.. so, i've decided to make friends and get to know him more. so, i text him. scary as it sounds, but i actually remembered the very day i first texted him.. and it was 3 years ago! it was Friday.. (sshhh.. i even remembered the date! hahaha..!!) the rest was then history..
in the process of knowing him, i got to know that he's a great guy with a golden heart.. i hardly meet gentle guys like him. he indeed has a gentle and quiet spirit. being around him is comfortable. although 3 years doesn't seem too long, but not too short either.. he, my very dear partner.. doesn't fail to amaze me in many ways.. now i understand why pastor David saidthat he is still in the process of uncovering and getting to know pastor Gloria.. yes.. it's a beautiful & exciting journey, indeed. :)
many asked if i'd reconsider about this thing we're going on... for the very reason that i've already graduated and proceed to a different stage of life sooner than him. yes, i've given it a thought. a deep thought, i guess. we've discussed about this again and again from time to time.. here's me conviction.. i really love this guy.. and though we may fit each other in certain areas, there are some parts that will deem not to fit perfectly.. so what if we have different footsteps along the way? that doesn't mean we can't walk together.. i believe God has His divine timing for everything.. and it's no mistake that this happened to us. so, instead of drawing conclusions too soon, we've surrendered this issue to God.. and give each other a chance.. to prove and make this work for each other the best we can.. and stand by each other's side.
i really believed God blessed us so much.. and He has really heard me prayers.. i don't know what the future holds, but i know God won't leave us alone.. :) i pray that not only it applies in boy-girl relationships, but in every relationships.. what God has united, let no one separate :D
so, let me re-introduce this great guy i have... he's charming, humble, gentle, understanding, funny, kind, dark, smart, gentleman, detailed, creative, fun, happy guy that loves God and life!! he's non other than..... (drums rolling) ..... Mr. Ebenezer Diong Zhang Song!! *applaus*applaus*
thank you for being such a sweet guy to me.. i pray that this bond we have will never be broken. i thank God that we have this special relationship.. it's really a beautiful thing indeed. love ya! *hugz*
