Destiny

Life together has been blessed

True love stories never have endings. ~ Richard Bach
Is fate the same as destiny, or is it all just a matter of chance and we perform the dance helplessly? Perhaps hidden masters make us prance in rhythm with some subconscious cues, but perhaps not; perchance, perchance. I like to think life lets us choose haphazardly; right turn, left turn, straight ahead, whichever turn it fashioned me into your muse. Be it chance or be it fate, it must be said our life together has been blessed like dew-kissed dawn and summer’s thread. Time for us did not stand still, it has flown and only time has shared the love we’ve known.

What a lovely entry for the contest. Time gives us many surprises. It is almost philosophical in its arguements.
