The gift of love....

The Day is soon upon us where our hearts are overfilled with special thoughts of our special loves. Some will meet while others may never get that opportunity, yet the feeling remains the same.... H

The story below is of a first meeting. It is an old tail which I changed a little to fit our lives today, Yet it is touching all the same. Enjoy.....

Hello...

"hello, How was your day?"...

This was the way the conversation started everyday. A very comfortable casual conversation by a pair that had been together for a long time. They had met on Valentines Day three years previous. Both of them lonely. Both of them searching for that special person to fill the void in their lives. That is just what they had found on that very special day.

"It was fine. How was yours...*S*"

That very special day when Sean met Ammie things where at thier lowest for him. He had recently separtated from his wife and had had to move to an unfamiliar area with his work. He was the quiet type so makeing new friends was a rather difficult task. While his co-workers went out together in the evenings he found himself sitting alone at home.

"I had a terrific day!"...

Ammie had had a great effect on Sean. With patients and careing she had helped him, through the great distance that separated them, to find that courage in him to go out and meet people. He often thought of her while he was out for the evenings with them.

"Great!"...

Sean too had had a great effect on Ammie. That very special day when they had met been a poor one for Ammie as well. She had just found out that the company she worked for were going to downsize, and she was one of the people that were going to be let go. She found herself curled up on her couch that evening with tears streaming down her face. Her mind overwhelmed with questions she had no answers for.

"Hey, I need to ask you something."...

Sean had sat and listened intently to her difficulties offering kind words and advice. A real comfort all around. He encouraged her to go back to school and become more for herself so that she would feel more successfull. She had taken this advise and now was and office manager in a rather large law firm....

"um, ok....shoot."...

Ammie's heart always skipped a beat when Sean needed to tell her something. She was always waiting for the day when he would tell her he couldn't come see her anymore.

"I need to know what your plans are for Valentines Day in a few weeks."...

Her heart resumed it's general patter as she realized that he was just asking general question.

"Oh. I don't think I am doing anything....*s*. Why do you ask?"...

Seans heart beat furiously in his chest as he typed out the next post. His fingers trembling feriously he had to back up and retype several letters.

"Well. If you don't mind... I would very much like to make our third annaversary special...*s*"

Ammie's brows furrowed in confusion. It seldom took Sean this long to post back to her. And he rarely beat around the bush with his statements. But today he seemed to be not himself. This worried her at first.

"Ok. Well... what did you have in mind sweetheart?"...
