Sunlight steadily focused through the magnifying glass over an infinitesimal piece of hay takes some time to spark a flame. Falling in love for the first time was the same way for me. Sitting right next to a pretty girl In high school, as shy as I was. And I knew We liked each other. One fine day, in class, I swallowed hard, drew in a deep breath and then whispered Into her right ear... "I like you, " Much to my surprise , she replied... "I like you, too." And that was... the beginning of our story Date written: 06/21/2018

ahh, such a sweet telling of early love. I recall the brainiac of my 9th grade writing me a note that said, "you are very attractive" We kind of walked around a bit together. He was kind of an albino with whitish hair. I learned later he became a famous doctor or something. Too bad we only lasted a week. I could have ended up a rich woman!!
