Sim on See Ming | See Ming on Sim
Sometimes you just know. And I know, with every certainty
in my heart that Sim is the love of my life. And the best
thing is he assures me lovingly, every single day that he
feels the same.
I used to think that a great love is the love that needs to
surmount many mountains of adversities. But I've come to realize,
and perhaps it is a life lesson that I could share, is that
many things that are meant to be, or written in the fate of
the stars, will often take the path of least resistance. It
may be common belief that goods things don't come easy, but
now I can assure you that this must be the most dangerous
myth of love. Good things can come easy, and the best kind
of love is the ones that ride the smoothest - just look at
our relationship.
Sim and I started dating very naturally, being friends for
a few years, and online buddies, we found ourselves suddenly
curious enough to come together. One fine evening, not too
long ago, we went to a hawker stall near my apartment for
a simple meal of fish and veggies and talked deep into the
night. That was it, it was that simple. The threads of our
relationship was woven very quickly, and spun like fluid silk
before our eyes. In no time, we have created this beautiful
tapestry of trust, respect and commitment that touch the core
of me, and still bring tears to my eyes.
Like magic, we knew. Even on that very first night, we knew
that we will always want to be together, and even though it
was unspoken at first, we had very early on made the first
promise to love and cherish each other.
I admit that I don't really believe in a specific God, but
there must have been a higher power that had been looking
down at us, sensing my loneliness and his loneliness and decided
to link our paths.
There are so many wonderful adjectives I can use to describe
Sim, and I know once I start, I may need pages to mention
all his outstanding virtues. My best friend Janet does the
best highlights of Sim, she says he is 'kind, patient, big-hearted,
funny, smart'.
And I say "more, definitely more". |
