Believe

believe in what your heart is saying
hear the melody that's playing
there's no time to waste
there's so much to celebrate

believe in what you feel inside
and give your dreams the wings to fly
you have everything you need
if you just believe.

people often tell me how the first three months of a relationship is generally "honeymoon stage".

they said you'd want to meet each other every day and, if possible, spend every waking (or not) moment together.

if this is convention, i'd say eric and me defied it.

we started off meeting each other about once, or perhaps twice a week, conscious of how the other party might want space and time to rest.

but as time lapped on, we started to grow closer and so, started to spend more time together.

we both fear we are monopolizing each other's time, so we often ask each other if we need some serene- or eric-time.

after a while, it turned out that he really only wanted eric-time then to shop for the ring and plan around the proposal to surprise me. =P

just yesterday, i asked if he wanted some eric-time since i was teaching.

he said...

"these days, i'd rather have serene-time. because i feel i am better with you around than without."

our affection for each other is still growing steadily as we trudge along the path to marriage.

we discover more about each other every day.

every morning seems to rejuvenate my love for him, so it seems like i'm falling in new love with him when i wake.

i'll be getting my ring back from the jeweller's next week. =)

can't wait to wear his ring again.

and he can't wait to feel it, my left hand held tight in his right.
