It happens.
Just when you thought things couldn't get any better, someone comes along and turns everything around.
Just when you thought that your greatest love has slipped away, this person suddenly enters your life and completely redefines everything you ever believed in when it comes to loving someone.
You know deep down inside you that this is it.
This is what you've been waiting for all along.
This is the answer to all the prayers that you've spent so many nights kneeling and asking God for.
And after all of the failed relationships, the untimely second chances, and the unfulfilled promises, it feels so damn good to finally be with the right person after years and years of trying for the wrong one.
She makes you so feel so much better about yourself and she inspires you to be the best version of you.
She gives you reasons to look forward to every mornings and she perfectly compliments your personality.
When you're with her, everything starts to make sense.
She expressively shows her support in every major decision of your life.
She's your beacon of happiness and her influence on you is so positive that you wonder where she'd been after all these years.
You take a moment to look back and the resentment and anger from your past is now gone..
Truth be told, you're grateful.
You feel a sense of thankfulness not because you're no longer with your ex, but because it taught you a lot of important life lessons.
Lessons that only heartbreak will teach and lessons that only failed second chances will ever make you realize.
Lessons that prepared you for this rare, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity because now you're more mature.
Now you're more understanding.
Now you're more patient.
And now, you're more capable of being in a relationship.
I wholeheartedly believe that people come and go into our lives with very different purposes..
Some teach us to be strong for ourselves.
Some teach us to be strong for other people.
Some teach us to live with the heartbreak and some teach us that there is life after heartbreak.
The past is now clear and the future is even clearer.
You feel that the pieces have finally fallen into place and you couldn't ask for more.
I do believe that when you're with the right person, you'll know it, you'll see it, and you'll feel it.
