One sunny, seemingly mundane morning, I woke up to the realization that it's been 7 months since the cab ride on the night of July 25th, 2009. :) And we're three months shy of going into a year. My friends told me that parang ang tagal na daw namin na hindi. That they feel like we've been together longer than 7 months, and that it took too long for us to reach 7 months, but at the same time, it only feels like yesterday when we first met.
I watched the movie Miss You Like Crazy the day before yesterday, and I realized that there isn't a universal way to fall in love. That people could be together for so long, yet fall apart, and how two people could only know each other for a short time yet can have that unsettling yet warm feeling that they share something truly special.
While it would be practical to get to know a person first before jumping into things out of impulse, sometimes there's just no denying true chemistry. As tangled and complicated as I was when I first met him, I definitely knew that there was something special, something out of the moment, that even if I had fallen deeply in love before, was something knew to me. The funny thing about it was it was something new, yet something completely familiar. And at that moment, underneath the summer night sky, I felt like I could fall into a pool on my back-- trust in spite of the uncertainty.
One thing I learned from him is that I should never have to settle for less-- that we all deserve at least a shot at real love.
So here's to 7 months of not having to settle for less, baby. :) And yes I know I'm cheesy, but I don't care. :P I love you! :*
