A Letter To the One that God has Prepared For Me

Whoa! I have read again this letter that was forwarded to my email last June 15, 2001. I believe that this should be the attitude while waiting for the right one, whatever we call the "one" that is shaped by God for us. Enjoy reading!

I am wondering at this very minute if you are thinkingof me, if you, like me, are wondering what is takingus so long to find each other. Many times I thought Ifinally found you only to be disillusioned by the factthat my wait has not yet ended. I get up each morninghoping, dreaming, longing to meet you.

I am thinking of how we will meet, would it be asromantic as the ones I have seen in movies? Or is itpossible that I have known you all my life but we haveyet to realize that we are meant for each other? Ohhow I wish you were here right now because you are theonly one who has the answers to all my questions.Sometimes I ask myself if I have ever really known"love". I do not have the answer to that questioneither but I believe that, more often than not, wewill never really know what love is until we find thatright person.... and since I have not found you yet,then maybe I do not really know what love is!

You just don't know how often I dream of finallyknowing what it feels like to be in your arms. Even atthis very moment I am imagining how you will simplysweep me off my feet! Perhaps I would be drawn to youby your smile, or your eyes, or maybe even how youmanage to make me laugh by your silly little ways! Idon't really know for sure but I am praying that Godwill help me recognize you when the right time comes.

I think of all the pain that I have gone through inthe past and of how much I have cried since the day Ibegan my search. I just wanted you to know that I findmy strength in clinging onto my vision of thebeautiful life ahead of me --- the life I shall spendwith you. In my mind and in my heart I know that youare worth all that pain and sacrifice. After all, thetears have become a part of my life and I believe thatthey are slowly washing away my flaws so that I wouldbecome perfect, not perfect in its truest sense, butperfect --- for You. I wonder if you've gone throughso much pain as well. I wonder if you've been hurt somany times along the journey. But my dearest one,please don't ever give up because I am right here...patiently waiting for you. I assure you that when wefinally find each other I would slowly heal thosewounds by my love.

At night, I would look out my window and stare at thebeautiful sky, hoping that somehow you are alsolooking up and wondering about me. I utter a silentprayer and send all my cries to the heavens abovethinking that in time they would reach you. And when Ifeel impatient, I just close my eyes and believe thatyou are on your way and that you are longing to see meas well. It is funny but when I finally fall asleep,it is still you that I think of, for you are always inmy dreams. It seems that, for now, that is the onlyplace where I can hold on to you, long enough to tellyou how much I love you. In my dreams you would kissaway my fears and wrap me with your arms of love. Andthis, all the more, makes me want to wake up andface the new day ahead with the hope that soon enough,you will no longer be a dream but a reality and onceagain I am assured that you are worth the wait. Andwhen that time comes, everything will fall into itsplace, just as I had imagined, just as I had thoughtand dreamed, just as I had believed it would be. Bythen, I would simply look back and smile at all that Ihave gone through, in spite of the pain and amidst thesimple joys of life --- and I would be very thankfulbecause they all led me to you.

In the meantime, take care of yourself for me. Hold onto our dream and don't even think of letting go.Believe in your heart that we will find each other nomatter what happens. God has planned the course and itis up to us to follow the directions. Don't worry,don't be afraid about getting lost, God saw to it thatall the roads, no matter which one you choose tofollow, will lead to me.
