Life is just funny how we want it to be.

It's 12.35am and I know I should be all tucked in bed, snuggling up together with the little ones. But we are so often stubborn creatures, although we know we will wake up feeling moody and reluctant to get out of bed in the morning and with full of regrets for not sleeping 30 mins earlier, we still do it. How funny life can be.

2 years and almost 3 months, that makes it 27 months. It seems like a rather long time..well to me at the point of time. E and I were just talking about the "fire" between a relationship. It's important to keep the fire burning.

We started to ask each other relationship matters for example what are the things that attracted me to him. Honestly, at that point of time, I couldn't answer it. That's pretty sad right. It's like we just got too used to each other, having each other by our sides. And guess what, the thing that makes me most contented is waking up in the morning with him by my side. Just such a simple thing, and that makes me happy, really happy.

Thinking about it now, how would I answer anyone that question? "Oh, I love his smile, his eyes, laughter...etc...." those are so generic answers. Are those really the characteristics that attracted him to me?

This brings me back to think about how we had our first supper together @ Selegie. I was sick, I still remember. He was sitting there reading his book. I like that he is smart. His voice and tone of speaking attracts me too. That's how I remembered him on our first supper. And our first dinner, a very last minute dinner, how he opened the door for me (I'm so easily amused.... dang... but not many guys do that, that's the truth) *impressed* but that only occurs during occasions now... sigh...haha....how he gave me that shocking hug, out of no where... I can rattle on and on ... but I don't want to bore you to death with all these.

I guess there is something deep down that binds us, I always look at our ring, the interlocking rings that I wear, it serves as a reminder, telling me about our love, how much we have been through, it may not be a lot compared to some, but it was still not easy for the two of us. I do hope it would interlock us together, keep and bind us together.

It's time to reflect upon what attracts me to him. Simple as it seems, I guess its just one word, love.

Good night secret readers.
