for those who chance to read this post………………perhaps i shall propose a toast………………as we celebrate this place in time where i become part of your world and you become part of mine…………..

by luck or providence our paths have crossed and as we continue to connect the dots………….you are part of that picture and i am part of yours………………………………….

i can quickly recall events that at the time seemed relatively small and insignificant, how they continued to influence me many years later…….by the same token i encountered events that i was sure would mark we for the rest of my life and they are now but vague memories…………………………………………………………………

so we cannot know how this will go but one thing we can be sure, little bit of me is part of you and now you are part of me…………….
