A Love Story..... Can you believe it! Not that long ago my life was a mess. I've suffered with mild depression all of my life. In October of 05,the girl I thought I was in love with,broke my heart. I was devastated. Once again,something bad had happened to me within just a couple of days from my birthday. This seemed to be a trend. My little brother died a week after my 7th birthday. My dad had a stroke on my 27th birthday. My first wife told me she wanted to have an affair on my 33rd birthday. I've had a two other girlfriends that broke up with me on other birthdays. I continued to go to Mass each week,but I felt lost. I prayed for God to help me through this,but always felt like God had turned his back on me. I was utterly and completely lost! I stopped singing in the choir because it felt like a lie to sing God's praises knowing He could care less about me. I stopped taking communion,because I could see the smirk on the face of Jesus as I looked to the altar. I never gave up though,even though I swear to this day that for just a while,God gave up on me. It was the Christmas Eve Midnight Mass (before Mass begins the choir sings for 30 minutes),and as the choir was singing "O Holy Night", I felt it. Whatever had been blocking me from God was gone and I was once again filled with His Holy Spirit. I left Mass that night feeling like everything would be alright. Fast forward to March 6th 2006. I just bought a computer,never having one before. Maybe there is something to be said for my best friend's advice. He's seen the heartaches I've endured by meeting women at bars,and suggested on-line dating. Hmm...OK I'll give it a shot. I put myself out in the "big cyber world" on a couple of dating sites. plentyofish,was one of them. Just like on 360 now,I was myself. I was honest. Just as soon as my profile went through,the computer sent me some matches. One woman,with the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen, had a profile that could have been written by me. We sounded so much alike it was a little scary. I'll keep her to my favorites and just watch her,since I'm too shy to email her. Two days later (4th day ever on-line) Oh My God! That girl with the blue eyes has sent me an email! We emailed back and forth,and by the 3rd day we were spending hours on the phone. We met within 2 weeks of first contacting each other. It was love at first sight for both of us. Fast forward 13 months I still can't believe it! I'm in Vegas with the woman that's about to become my wife. Life is GREAT! Fast forward 1 year It's here! Diane and I have been married for a year on the 11th. I've never known such joy and peace. The depression that I've lived with for so long is all but forgotten. All I needed was that "missing piece" of my heart to complete me. Diane is that piece. Thank you Diane for contacting me, for calling me, for marrying me, and for loving me. You have my love now. You have my love always!
