why we remember and make the effort to celebrate
This was originally written as a comment on my diary earlier today, yet one more romantic anniversary - I thought I would put it up separately in case it might speak to those unlikely to see it in its original location
it can bring some real joy back into life
we have the day we encountered one another at the train station
we have the day of our first "date" - today
we have the day I told her I loved her
we have the day she told me she loved me
we have the day we officially decided to get engaged and after explaining why we really couldn't afford the star sapphire with which she had fallen in love, I went in and bought it as her engagement ring
