It was destiny and the beginning of a unique journey. Still hidden from me that day was the greater life journey that would be revealed just twelve months later when I got married.

Dear Selina, I wish you'd lived; but since you didn't, I like to think the sun doesn't set where you are. I'm sending these words so you can know where the story stopped for some time; it hasn't ended yet, but I think the sun has been rising on me too. I think I should thank you now, and let you go back to resting. The sun will be over the horizon soon, so I need to go back and finish the story.
