How I Met My Wife

I was a young man in search of a wife. I wanted to settle down and have a family of my own.

What I wanted in a wife was simple enough - she should be good looking, pretty, confident, intelligent, smart, educated, come from a good family, and have a good sense of humor.

Above all, she should be God-fearing and love me above all else.

For years I searched and searched. I had a good sense of humor and related pretty well with people. So, making friends wasn't a problem.

But getting married was much more than friendship. There had to be something deeper - a connection deep within.

So I searched and searched for that one woman who would capture my heart. In the process I met a lot of really nice people. But I couldn't imagine being married to them.

Then one sunny afternoon in a Christian convention, I met a young woman who instantly stole my heart.

One look at her long legs and the captivating smile on her face gave me that conviction that she was the one.

I walked up to her and said, "Hi. My name is Samson. I want you to be my friend".

The question was so direct that she was taken aback for a brief moment.

She smiled and said, "Yes, why not". Then we shook hands.

I really can't explain it.

But that very moment as I spoke to her, shook her hands, and looked deep into her eyes, I knew deep down that I have found the woman of my dreams.

I have found the girl I've been looking for!

Six years have passed since then and I'm grateful she's been everything I have wished for.

Yes, dreams come true. Mine came true. And now I'm about the happiest man in the world.

My advice?

If you have lost at love before, don't give up. Love is around the corner. I'm convinced love will find you if you let it.
