In another lifetime…

In another lifetime a boy said to a girl, I think I love you.

In another lifetime the boy and the girl would walk hand in hand in the snowy night, kicking hunks of ice back and forth to each other.

In another lifetime the boy would make hearts using footprint tracks in the snow under the girls dorm window.

In another lifetime the girl ran up and down her dorm shouting that she was engaged.

In another lifetime the boy and the girl would play in the summer sun at the amusement park they both worked, making sure that they both had the same day off.

In another lifetime the boys hands shook as he promised to love the girl forever and forever and forever and his look of love is still etched in the girls mind as he placed the ring on her finger.

In another lifetime boy and the girl drove off to start their lives together, not knowing for sure where they were going.

In another lifetime the boy and girl chose an RV park in the high desert of CA, where the wind blew, and the tumbleweeds scattered.

In another lifetime the boy and the girl joined a cult, and believe it or not, they were pretty happy with it for a while!

In another lifetime the boy and girl moved yet again, to help the boy get a job.

In another lifetime the boy and girl would spend just about every weekend at Disneyland, watching fireworks from a private area while eating mickey head shaped lollipops.

In another lifetime the boy and girl would travel all over the US and Canada with their trusty leash kitties by their side.

In another lifetime the boy and girl moved yet again, to the other side of the country, not knowing what was in store.

In another lifetime the boy held the girl as she cried for days after her mother died.

In another lifetime the boy said in shock, are you sure? ARE YOU SURE? as the girl showed him the 2 pink lines.

In another lifetime the boy supported the girl through the whole debacle of bringing their daughter into this world.

In another lifetime the boy became the best Daddy ever.

And how is it, that now it is 20 lifetimes? How could the boy and the girl still love each other so much? People still think that they are newlyweds. The boy is the best husband in the world. He is sweet, gentle, and not only says that he loves the girl on a very regular basis, he does it though deeds as well. The girl wonders how in the world she ever could have gotten so lucky, for the boy is amazing.

20 years, in a blink.

How could they ever have imagined, in the dorm 20 years ago, where they would be in 20 years? There was no imagining it.
