Love

Sometimes, love comes when you least expect it. Have you noticed how love can surprise? It happens suddenly, with the most unlikely people, in a strange or exotic place, or maybe even a mundane one like the local diner. But, whatever the circumstance, it happens and there you are wondering how you had gotten along without this amazing other person. It is perfect love; it is the perfect story.
